TUNIS — Tunisian authorities bolstered security across the country Friday amid fears of more attacks after a museum massacre claimed by the Islamic State and carried out by gunmen who apparently trained in Libya.
Security forces were deployed at key sites including the main Mediterranean port in the capital, Tunis, and the headquarters of state radio following a threat against the broadcaster.
An Interior Ministry spokesman said police were aware of a specific threat against Radio Tunisia but gave no other details. The full-scale security patrols were reminiscent of the dispatch of troops across France after a series of attacks in Paris by Islamist gunmen in January.
