Two suicide bombers launch attacks in Tunisia
|
 [NYPOST] A pair of jacket wallahs blew themselves up in the capital of Tunisia on Thursday, leaving one police officer dead and at least nine others injured.
One attacker targeted police on Charles de Gaulle Street, a busy commercial strip, in central Tunis shortly before 11 a.m., while another attack took place simultaneously near a cop shoppe in the al-Gorjani district, in the outskirts of the city.
Five coppers were among those injured.
The attacks sent people fleeing in terror, witnesses told Rooters.
"I was shopping with my daughter and we heard a big explosion. We saw the body of the terrorist lying on the ground near a police vehicle after he went kaboom! ," said a man who gave his name only as Mohammed.
The suicide kabooms come months before an election and at the peak of tourist season.
Islamic State
 ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
grabbed credit for two suicide kabooms on police in the Tunisian capital on Thursday, the Death Eater group's Amaq news agency said.
The attacks, which killed one police officer and injured several other people, came a few months before an election and at the peak of a tourist season in which Tunisia is hoping for a record number of visitors.
