Tunisia said that it had arrested 23 suspects in connection with last week's jihadist massacre at the country's national museum."Twenty-three suspects including a woman have been arrested as part of a terrorist cell" involved in the attack, Interior Minister Najem Gharsalli told journalists, adding that "80 per cent of this cell" had been broken up. The museum attack was the worst on foreigners in Tunisia since an Al Qaeda suicide bombing of a synagogue killed 21 people on the island of Djerba in 2002.
