Reuters: At Least 12 Dead in Attack on Tunisia Military Bus

TUNIS — At least 12 people were killed on Tuesday after an explosion tore through a bus full of Tunisian presidential guards in an attack one source said was probably carried out by a bomber detonating his explosives in the vehicle.

Ambulances rushed wounded from the scene and security forces closed off streets around Mohamed V Avenue, one of the major streets in the capital Tunis and where the charred wreckage of the bus lay not far from the interior ministry.

Slowly but surely ISIS etal, are tightening their grip across North Africa. Egypt and Israel remain the hinge and vulnerable spot in this strategy.
