CAIRO (Reuters) - Islamic State claimed responsibility on Wednesday for an attack on a Tunisian presidential guard bus, an official statement from the group said. Tunisian authorities said that a suicide bomber carried out the attack on Tuesday, which killed at least 12 people and forced the government to impose a nationwide state of emergency.
