Close-up Footage Of ISIS Gunman During Tunisian Terror Attack Emerges

The Tunisian terror attacks on Friday has emerged online and just might be the most comprehensive video to come out of it so far. The footage was obtained by Sky News.

A courageous Tunisian hotel worker filmed a truly shocking footage which shows the ISIS gunman just metres away as he continues his killing spree through the holiday resort in Sousse, Tunisia.

Selfeddine Rezgui, the ISIS gunman, had already killed dozens of innocent people and had entered the beach area to look for more targets when the video started. The video conveys just how terrifying the situation must have been for all involved, and gives a first-hand insight into just what was happening on the ground.

The horrific scene is laid out in front of you as the cameraman makes his way through sun loungers as bodies lie motionless on the floor.

Witnesses said that the gunman was seen laughing and joking among the midday bathers and sunseekers, looking like any other tourist. According to them, he was carefully selecting the victims he would kill with a Kalashnikov rifle hidden in his parasol. The British were his prime targets on the crowded Tunisian beachfront. But Germans, Belgians and Tunisians were also among his 38 victims.

"He was laughing and joking around, like a normal guy,' said one witness. 'He was choosing who to shoot. Some people, he was saying to them 'you go away'. He was choosing tourists, British, French."

Later on, survivors and locals begin to turn on the gunman, and give chase down the beach as the coward flees. “Come on,” somebody shouts “He hasn’t got the balls for this.”

The growing crowd continues to bravely chase him down the beach, as he fires back at them in a scene you can usually only experience in front of a cinema screen. And as the gunfire continues, these couragous individuals only become more motivated to catch him – until Rezgui finally meets his end via the bullets of an armed police officer.

This extremely significant footage will go down in history, as will the courage and determination of the Tunisian locals to not let terrorism win.

Sky News confirms that the number of Britons killed in the attacks has now doubled to thirty. Our thoughts go out to every single one of their family and friends.
