(Reuters) - Three Japanese citizens were killed in an attack on Tunisia's national museum and not five as Tunisia said, Japanese government officials said on Thursday. Earlier, Tunisian
Prime Minister Habib Essid said five Japanese were among 19 people
killed when gunman wearing military uniforms stormed the museum on
Wednesday. But Chief
Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said the report that five Japanese
people had been killed was not correct and a foreign ministry spokesman
said the government confirmed three Japanese were killed and three
wounded. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said earlier Japan strongly condemned terrorism and the government was gathering information about the attack in Tunisia.
