The 38 people mainly british holiday makers were killed by a gunman at a beach resort. The gunman was killed by police, who have arrested eight people suspected of being involved. A state of emergency was last imposed in tunisia four years ago during the revolution, which toppled longtime president. Now to greece and the finance minister is accusing europe of terrorism. They told up in reporters that they expect a deem with creditors on monday regardless of the outcome of the referendum. Now lastminute preparations are being made. More than 9 million greeks are eligible to vote. 12 hours of voting begins at 7 00 a. M. On sunday and the results will be announced machine. Around 15,000 people have been taking advantage of the officer. They plan to continue the charity work until banks reopen. This are the scenes outside of the banks. You can see long queues outside of the cash machine. They say that the banks will reopen by tuesday theyve been closed all week to avoid mass money withdrawals. The word is no. The no campaign gathered in front of parliament backed by the government wants a future in europe but with a better deal for greece. Less austerity less money lost and less debt repayment. There is the to be ability that this country will have a future. Not far away the yes crowd met in greece,. We are aall here to show that we want to be european citizens. A return to drachma will be a total disaster. Its been called uninstitution by some and a dangerous gamble is the next act in the drama already five years old. The conclusion has never been less certain. The no votes will right history. Our people will move on within an europe of democracy and solidarity. The left wing Prime Minister believes a novote will strengthen greeces a hand in negotiations. A mandate to demand more for less. A yes vote then in effect would be a no to him and his party. Actually many people are voting yes and voting against current government. What strikes me about these two sides the yes and the no camps are not just the strengths with which theyre willing to defend their position but its driven much deeper this week. Between the largely middle class voters of the yes camp willing to sign this country up to more austerity measures to defend what theyve got and many here workers two no jobs, with little or nothing left to lose. And now a no vote for the people in greece say that we have to stop or negotiations with the european union, we have to take our lives back and fight for our money our jobs, our democracy. I have friends who belong to yes. Tomorrow, they will still be my friends. On this square where greeks have so often demonstrated their anger in the past the no crowd stands with the government of the stay. If they win on sunday there is not one person here who truly knows what will happen next. Jonah hull, al jazeera athens. Lets go to our reporter in athens. John sporopolus. Negotiations will restart again with the creditors on monday. Thats right. The beginning of this week the government was feeling less shower of it. They were saying that a yes vote may well lead to the governments resignation. But in the last 24 hours weve seen a little bit more confidence coming from the Government Camp perhaps sensing that the no vote is picking up strength as we approach the referendum deadline. The Prime Minister has said which ever way the vote goes hell be the man who will go back to bruce he wills to pick up the negotiations with havers where he left off and today the object of this referendum, the offer made to the greeks on the on the 25th of june, and which the greeks accepted, is still a living document. Because we have been receiving variations on it during these days on the preparation for the referendum. If is no longer something that is considered expaired just because the Football Program is expired. Therefore he said this is the one that will pick up and go back to brussels with on monday. Meanwhile, going back to jonahs report talking to many greeks who have come out to express their cause one way or another, and it does seem very much as though greece has never been more polarized between those perhaps more middle class who will vote yes and those more working class who are likely to vote no. Well, its different fears driving the two camps. In the no camp of got the fear of a return of the conservatives. The conservatives are very much driving the yes campaign. Many of the pollalations are hopefully placing themselves within it, and theyve turned this referendum into a general election which they hope will unseat the losing leftest. There is little doubt in the minds of the month camp that that is what is at stake that were seeing the possible return of conservatives who after two and a half years in office were ousted because people disagreed with their pursuit of the austerity program. The other fear is thiophene the conservatives dont bomb quacker back, we may get a ganger. This happened in 2012 and did not lead to Great Results for greece. Theyre looked back upon in great sorrow not only forking arealations, but it was also a time when the greek becomes greek bonds effect bonds effectively bankrupted. There are different fears that you can see on both sides. The no camp doesnt want the conservatives back. They dont want their caretaker government back. The yes camp does not want the division that that they fear will end in problems. John giving us a comprehensive account of greece today as it prepares for that vie tall vote.
