Tourists looking for a relaxing beach getaway may be in for a rude awakening in Sousse. In 2015, a terrorist attack at a resort north of the city killed 38 people, 30 of whom were British. The Tunisian government later acknowledged fault for the slow police response. Bureaucracy is a persistent headache, with the country's new counterterrorism legislation allowing authorities to tap phone calls of suspected terrorists. While the country was considered secure prior to the attack, Sousse's safety is now a major concern. This coastal city may not be the ideal destination for the faint of heart.
