The number of Britons confirmed to have died in an attack on a Tunisian beach hotel has risen to 15 and could rise further, junior Foreign Office Minister Tobias Ellwood said in London on Saturday.
A total of 39 people were killed in Friday's attack by a gunman on the hotel in the resort of Sousse, according to Tunisian authorities. A German, a Belgian and an Irish national were also among the victims.
Ellwood said it was the "most significant" attack on British people since bombings on the London transport system on July 7, 2005.
British tour operators Thomson and First Choice sent 10 planes to evacuate tourists from Tunisia on Saturday.
A Tunisian gunman disguised as a tourist opened fire with a rifle he had hidden in an umbrella, killing people as they lounged at the beach and at the pool. He was shot dead by police.
