               Tunisia Detains 12 in Connection with Hotel Attack

   by VOA News

   Authorities in Tunisia have detained 12 people in connection with last
   week's attack at a beach resort that killed 38 people, an official said
   Thursday.

   The gunman, Saif Rezgui, was killed by security forces following the
   mass shooting Friday in the city of Sousse.  Officials have said he was
   the only shooter, but that they were searching for people who may have
   provided help before the attack.

   The Islamic State group claimed responsibility, just as it did when two
   gunmen killed 21 people at the Bardo museum in Tunis in March.

   Officials said Rezgui and the Bardo gunmen trained in Libya at the same
   time.

   Most of the dead in both attacks were foreign tourists.  Many of those
   killed Friday were British nationals, while others were citizens of
   Germany, Ireland, Belgium and Portugal.
