Тројца од мртвите се полицајците кои го обезбедувале конзулатот.
Со огледа на тоа што конзулатот е еден вид тврдина, зачудува обидотна вооружените лица да сакаат воопшто да влезат.
Gunmen today attacked the U.S. consulate here, sparking a gun battle that left three Turkish police officers and the three assailants dead, authorities said.
It was the most serious attack in several years on a foreign diplomatic mission in Turkey.
No consulate personnel were reported killed or injured in the shooting, which occurred at about 11 a.m. in the Istanbul suburb of Istinye. The consulate moved out of downtown Istanbul after Al Qaeda militants in 2003 attacked targets including the British consulate.
Police sealed off the area around the heavily fortified consulate complex, which is built on a hillside overlooking the Bosporus. The steep street approaching the consulate gates is lined with small apartment buildings and shops.
Officials at the scene, including Istanbul's governor, said a white car was seen dropping off the three gunmen, all appearing to be in their 20s, close to the entrance to the consulate's visa section. Turkish traffic police who happened to be nearby spotted them, and an exchange of gunfire broke out.
