The pain after the shock

By THE DATA TEAM

TUNISIA is still reeling from the shock of a terrorist attack at a beach resort on June 26th, which left dozens of holidaymakers dead. Over the weekend mourners gathered on the shore to pray, hotels beefed up security and thousands flew home. But terrorists aim to do more than just slaughter innocent civilians. The economic damage to its tourism industry, which accounts for around 15% of GDP (directly and indirectly), will hurt Tunisia in a different way.
