Tunisia arrests nine in connection with museum attack
Tunisian authorities have arrested nine people suspected of playing a role in Wednesday's attack on the Bardo Museum that left 23 dead and dozens wounded. A government spokesperson said four of the arrests were "directly related" to the attack, while the other five were made "under strong suspicion of relation to the attack." The government on Thursday also identified the two gunmen killed in the attack as Yassine Laabidi and Hatem Khachnaoui, but said it found no terrorism link.—Jon Terbush
