#BreakingNews Hundreds of Jewish worshipers are in lockdown in the El Ghriba Synagogue (also known as the Djerba Synagogue,) in the city of Djerba in #Tunisia.  "God forbid. We are probably under attack in  El Ghriba," a member of the Jewish community tweeted
@Jerusalem_Post
A source inside the synagogue tells me that "there are probably Jewish casualite," in the Ghriba Synagogue.

More than an hour after the attack began, Aitan tweeted that "the attack is not over. We hear [gun] shots. There are dead people. We are still besieged in the synagogue. Let's hope everything will be fine.  Please pray for us." @Jerusalem_Post
"A witness told me he saw a dead man. A policeman. 3 people just came in from outside, they say the shooting is going on and they saw a man taken prisoner. They were lying (the witnesses) under a civil car for protection."
Photos circling around social media suggest that three terrorists tried to enter the Djerba #synagogue and were killed. Photos show dead bodies and ammunition. Still haven't received any official updates.

A family member of people who were stuck in the synagogue for the past few hours told me right now that "people are going back to their hotels, Baruch Hashem [thank God]"
@Jerusalem_Post
Carthage Magazine , a Tunisian news outlet reported that "the Tunisian authorities confirmed there is no terrorist attack in Djerba or any kind of shot fires.
A homicide took place in the harbor, about 15 KMs far from El Ghriba synagogue, and the individual was arrested."
Carthage Magazine added that Tunisian authorities confirmed the incident happened in Aghir, a village in Northern east Djerba. The actual incident resulted in the killing of one police officer. The suspect arrested, local police confirmed. No other casualties were reported."
