Tunisia's British tourists 'just want to go home and feel safe'

The government in Tunisia has said 10 of the 38 victims of a beach resort gun attack have been identified. So far eight are known to be British, one is Belgian, and another German.

Briton Lindsay Nelson, who is still in Tunisia, has told the BBC's Ben Brown she and her fellow tourists were ''left with no support whatsoever'' by their tour company, Jet2holidays.

''We've just been left here with no help - no one has been in touch, '' she said. ''We just want to go home and feel safe.''

The company has issued a statement, saying: ''In light of the appalling events yesterday, we will be bringing back those Jet2holidays and Jet2.com customers who want to return home - today. ''

''Up to four aircraft will be arriving at Enfhida Airport this afternoon to repatriate those customers. Important numbers: - UK customers with Tunisia related queries or concerned relatives should call 0113 457 0550- Customers in Tunisia please call 0044 113 387 9501.''
