Militant Attack on Tourist Hotels in Tunisia Kills at Least 19
by

Gunmen attacked two hotels in the Tunisian Mediterranean tourist town of Sousse, killing at least 19 people, the Interior Ministry said, shattering a period of relative calm since a militant strike on a Tunis museum.
The militants armed with Kalashnikovs exchanged fire with security forces, ministry spokesman Mohammed Ali al-Arawi said by phone. One of the attackers was killed and another fled, he said.
In March assailants dressed as soldiers attacked the Bardo Museum in Tunis, taking hostages. Citizens of Poland, Italy and Germany were among at least 17 tourists who died.
At least 3,000 Tunisians are estimated to have left their homes to become one of the largest groups of foreign fighters in territories held by Islamic State. That radicalization now poses a threat to a country that sought to be a beacon of social and economic stability in the turbulent Arab world.
