Theresa May has visited the scene of the Tunisian beach massacre.
The Home Secretary laid flowers and observed a period of silence in the Sousse resort where up to 30 Britons are feared to have been killed.
Mrs May and foreign office minister Tobias Ellwood have travelled to the country to pay their respects and take part in talks with the Tunisian government on addressing the extremist threat.
A total of 38 people perished after a gunman opened fire on a beach in the resort on Friday.
The identities of 17 people from the UK and Ireland who died have been confirmed, but sources have indicated the British death toll could rise as high as 30.
