Italy expels two Tunisians, one with links to Berlin attacker: ministry

Italy has expelled two Tunisians, one of whom may have had contact with a man who killed 12 people in Berlin when he plowed a truck through a busy Christmas market, the Italian interior ministry said.

It said the name of the 44-year-old Tunisian, who was expelled on Saturday, was registered for a phone number which was found among the contacts of Berlin attacker Anis Amri.

Amri came to Italy by boat in 2011 and spent almost four years in jail there before being ordered out of the country in 2015.
