An Cosantóir November 2016 www.dfmagazine.ie 20 | By PAuL O'BRIEN MA A Wave S eifeddine Rezgui Yacoubi racked back the bolt on his auto- matic weapon, released the safety catch and opened fire indiscriminately into the crowd. The attack commenced at 1138hrs at the tourist resort of Port el Kantaoui, about 10 kilome- tres from Sousse, in Tunisia. Within minutes, 38 people lay dead and many more wounded in what was to be one of the worst attacks on foreign holiday makers in the region. A rose lies on the beach of the Riu Imperial Marhaba Hotel in memory of those killed. Photo: © Getty
