Tunisia attack: First arrests

Tunisia attack: First arrests made over beach massacre, interior minister says.

Tunisia has made its first arrests in connection with last week's jihadist attack at a popular beach resort that killed 38 people, interior minister Najem Gharsalli said.

"We have started by arresting a first group, a significant number of people, from the network that was behind this terrorist criminal," Mr Gharsalli said at a joint press conference with his German, French and British counterparts.

Mr Gharsalli gave no further details, but said officials were still verifying whether the attacker had been trained in neighbouring Libya in jihadist camps.
