Hotel’s ‘terror attack’ prank terrifies guests

A holiday company has apologised after hotel staff in Turkey staged an apparent mock terrorist “attack” to entertain guests.

The joke backfired as one British holidaymaker said he was left “terrified” by the stunt at the Grand Yazici Mares hotel in Icmeler last Thursday.

The incident came just six weeks after Islamic State terrorist Seifeddine Rezgui Yacoubi killed 38 people, 30 of them British holidaymakers, in Tunisia.
