British tourists and Tunisian residents joined together to sing Michael Jackson's 'Heal the World' in a poignant tribute to the dead.
A tribute took place last night at a hotel complex near the scene of the terror attack as British holidaymakers formed a human circle and performed a moving tribute.

Brits and Tunisian locals came together on the beach where the tragedy unfolded to hold a candlelit vigil in support of the victims and to stand against the violence which took place.
Holidaymaker Jenny Weldon, from Middlesbrough, filmed the powerful scenes at the hotel as mourners formed a circle around the complex.

Tourists and Tunisians came together for a candlelit vigil as people held posters saying “Peace” and “Sousse will never die”.

One local resident said: "What happened (on Friday) does not represent Tunisia. We are sorry for the families, the victims, they are our guests."
