Israel Issues Terror Warning for Tunisia
(Ynet News) Attila Somfalvi - Israel's Counter-Terrorism Bureau on Thursday warned Israelis to refrain from visiting Tunisia, in light of intentions to carry out terror attacks in the country against Israeli and Jewish targets during the Lag b'Omer festival next Wednesday and Thursday in Djerba. Last year the festival did not take place "due to the unpleasant atmosphere towards Jews in the country," said Haim Damari, Director General of Tunis Tours. In April 2002, 21 people were murdered in the synagogue on Djerba Island after a suicide bomber blew himself up in a gas-filled tanker.
