ISIS Claims Responsibility For Tunisia Beach Attack That Left 38 DEAD

 

ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack on a seaside resort hotel in Tunisia on Friday that killed at least 38 people and wounded at least 36 others, many of them Western tourists.

The Islamist group named the attacker as Abu Yahya al-Qirawani and said he managed to infiltrate the Hotel Riu Imperial Marhaba in the coastal city of Sousse.

Though some witnesses reported seeing more than one gunman, and the Tunisian Interior Ministry had initially said there had been three, but a ministry spokesman later said they are aware of only one and that he has been killed.

The spokesman, Mohammed Ali Aroui, said the gunman was a student who was going to receive his master's degree in engineering in the nearby town of Kairouan before carrying out the dastardly act.

ISIS through their twitter accounts have however been posting the picture of the man and saying he made them proud.
