A concert and a public rally are expected, with museum officials saying they want to show the world that the gunmen "haven't achieved their goal". There are fears the attack - claimed by Islamic State (IS) - will hit Tunisia's vital tourism industry. On Monday, Tunisia's prime minister dismissed six police chiefs. Habib Essid's office said he had noted several security deficiencies during a visit to the museum, which houses a major collection of Roman mosaics and other antiquities.

Two of the gunmen were killed by the security forces during last Wednesday's attack, while a third is on the run, officials said. The attack was the deadliest in Tunisia since the uprising which led to the overthrow of long-serving ruler Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali in 2011. Suspects have been arrested over the attack but just two gunmen were thought to have raided the museum.
