Tunisian security forces stand guard outside the Bardo Museum in Tunis. 19 March 2015


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.

     The British girl who was filmed performing a sex on 24 men in Majorca was told she would win a 'holiday' - but it was just the name of a £4 cocktail, it was today claimed. The 18-year-old, who is yet to be named, was captured on video working her way through holidaymakers at a nightclub in the island’s notorious party capital of Magaluf. Donning pink hotpants and a white vest top, she was cheered on by revellers as she moved from man to man, encouraging each of them to take their trousers down. The two-minute footage was later posted online and quickly went viral, sparking outrage among local politicians and women's rights groups. Last night, police launched an inquiry into the incident, which took place during an event organised by Carnage Magaluf at Alex's Bar.
