The hunt is on for two "dangerous terrorists" for their involvement in the slaying of 38 people on a beach resort in Tunisia on Friday.

After Tunisian police arrested more than 12 people in relation to the massacre, the Interior Ministry put out a red alert for two men, the Mirror has reported.

Mohamed bin Abdallah, 24, and Rafikhe Tayari, 28, are thought to have helped Seifeddine Rezgui carry out his bloody assault at the Imperial Marhaba.

Their images are on the Ministry’s Facebook page and they are appealing for the public’s help in any information in tracking the two men down.

And as confusion reigns as to how many shooters there were involved, one British tourist who witnessed the attack says he saw a second gunner.

"We saw what we believe was a second terrorist. It was a guy in red shorts, walking down from the hotel into the pool area. He just had red shorts on, nothing else on his legs or his feet or his body,” Steve Johnson said.

However hotel workers say they saw just Rezgui, who started killing on the beach before moving into the resort’s pool area.
