Shock in Tunisia after armed gunmen killed at Least 17 tourists and two locals in the country's national museum in central Tunis on Wednesday. The terrorists, disguised in military clothes, first opened fire on tourists getting off buses outside the Bardo museum, which is located near the country’s parliament building. They then ran into the museum’s marble and stone galleries, and took dozens of other visitors and staff hostage. After a two hour siege, security forces stormed the building, killed the gunmen and freed the hostages. The Tunisian authorities said that there may have been at least two or three more attackers who've managed to escape and are still on the loose. No one has initially taken responsibility for the attack, but the European Union’s foreign policy chief, Federica Mogherini, openly speculated that Islamic State-linked militants were to blame. null http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ
