Tunis (IINA) – The tourism sector has suffered a heavy blow following the 26 June’s terrorist attack in the Tunisian city of Sousse, 140 kilometers south of the capital Tunis, in which 38 tourists were killed.
Tourist arrivals dropped by 57.7 percent from July 1 to 10 compared to the same period in 2014 and 74.8% compared to 2010. The number of tourists who visited Tunisia early in July has not exceeded 74,974, Tunisia Press Agency (TAP) reported, citing data published Tuesday by the Tourism Ministry
On July 9, the UK Foreign Office changed its travel advice to Tunisia to advise against all but essential travel for the time being, and recommended that British tourists return to the United Kingdom.
