THE final five bodies of the Britons killed in the Tunisia terror attack have today been repatriated back to RAF Brize Norton.

Their coffins will be be taken in convoy to West London Coroner's Court in Fulham where their inquests will be held.

It comes as Tunisia has now declared a state of emergency after tightening security since the attack.

The Foreign Office confirmed those returning home were Lisa Burbidge, in her 60s from Whickham, Stuart Cullen, 52, from Lowestoft, Christopher Dyer, 32, from Watford, Bruce Wilkinson, 72, from Goole and Claire Windass, 54, from Hull.

This follows a minute's silence which was held yesterday across the country by millions including The Queen and Prime Minister David Cameron in honour of those killed.

At the scene of the attack both tourists and Tunisians came together at the holiday resort and linked arms to observe the minutes silence.

Overall 38 people were killed by the gunman Seifeddine Rezgui at the Sousse beach - of which 30 were British.

The bodies were flown back to Brize Norton, with RAF personnel on a C17 transport aircraft.

Senior coroner for West London Chinyere Inyama opened inquests into eight of the British victims yesterday.

The coroner will continue to open inquests into the deaths of those throughout the weekend.
