The RT correspondent in France said on Thursday night that the author of the terrorist operation in Nice, in which 3 people were killed, was an illegal immigrant of Tunisian nationality.

A Tunisian security source and a French police source said the 21-year-old Tunisian suspect in the Nice attack in France is Ibrahim El-Ouesawi.

The Tunisian source stated that El-Ouesawi hails from Sidi Omar village in Bouhajla, Kairouan, and was recently residing in Sfax, noting that the police visited his family there on Thursday.

The representative of the Nice region, Eric Ciotti, had announced that the Nice attacker, a Tunisian citizen, had recently arrived in France via the Italian island of Lampedusa.

“I just asked Macron during a meeting in Nice to suspend all immigration and asylum laws, especially on the Italian border,” Ciotti said in a tweet on Twitter.

For its part, the French website Paris Match pointed out that the attacker, a Tunisian national, arrived illegally in France, indicating that he was 21 years old.

Three people were killed during a terrorist attack near the Notre Dame church in Nice, a 70-year-old woman who used to visit the church and was beheaded, and a man in his 45s and a woman in his 30s died of La wounded in a bar near the scene of the attack.

The attacker was taken to the hospital after being shot by police, while eyewitnesses reported that he repeated “God is great” all the time.
