Tunisia: Policeman and three militants dead after 'terrorist' attack

Security officials in Tunisia say a police officer has been killed and another wounded in a knife attack in the coastal resort of Sousse.
Three assailants were shot dead after the incident, which is being described as a terrorist attack.
In 2015 Sousse was the scene of one of Tunisia's worst attacks, when 38 people, most of them British tourists, were killed by a gunman.
The latest incident comes two days after a new government was sworn in.
The suspected militants rammed their vehicle into a National Guard checkpoint at a junction near the city's port.
"A patrol of two National Guard officers was attacked with a knife in the centre of Sousse," National Guard spokesman Houcem Eddine Jebabli said, according to the AFP news agency.
"One died as a martyr and the other was wounded and is hospitalised," he said.
"This was a terrorist attack".
The knifemen stole guns and a police vehicle during the attack before making off, Mr Jebabli said. Security forces took off after them through the tourist areas of El Kantaoui.
"In a firefight three terrorists were killed," he said, adding that two guns and the car were recovered.
