State of Emergency in Tunisia Extended

RECENTLY updated advice from the Foreign and Commonwealth website is that A state of emergency is still effect in #Tunisia. It has been extended a number of times, most recently on 16 February 2017 by three months.

"Since the terrorist attack in Sousse in June 2015, we have been working closely with the Tunisian authorities to investigate the attack and the wider threat from terrorist groups in Tunisia. Although we have had good co-operation from the Tunisian government, including putting in place additional security measures, the intelligence and threat picture has developed considerably, reinforcing our view that a further terrorist attack is highly likely. On balance, we do not believe the mitigation measures in place provide adequate protection for British tourists in Tunisia at the present time."
