Two suspected Islamic State (IS) militants stormed the four-star Bella Vista hotel yesterday evening armed with knives with which they started to attack tourists.
A total of three of the hotel’s customers, two Austrians and a Swede, were wounded before police shot both attackers, killing one and wounding the other.
Security officials have since claimed that the men were also armed with a gun and an explosives belt. Reports also stated the two attackers unfurled an IS flag during the attack.
