Terrorists attacked the Riu Imperial Marhaba hotel, a spokesman for the Tunisian Interior Ministry said. The agency said at least 27 people were killed and six wounded in the attack.

According to the BBC, at least one terrorist was killed in a gunfight with police.

Sousse is one of Tunisia's most popular beach resorts, attracting tourists from Europe and neighboring North African countries.

Tunisia was shaken in March when Islamist gunmen opened fire at the Bardo Museum in Tunis, killing a group of foreign tourists. It was one of the worst attacks in the country in a decade.
