AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoProtests vs. Kais Saied: Hundreds of Tunisians rallied in downtown Tunis calling for President Kais Saied to step down, denouncing “one-man rule” and demanding reliable water and electricity, medicine availability, lower living costs, and the release of jailed opposition figures. The demonstrations were mobilized by the new Nafas movement, which aims to unite parties and independents beyond Saied’s traditional opponents, as extreme heat pushes STEG into rationing and power cuts disrupt water pumping. Rights and detention pressure: Ennahda said imprisoned leader Rached Ghannouchi was kept in “total isolation” during a hospital stay, alleging blocked family visits and legal access, while his movement frames his case as politically motivated. Migration and humanitarian fallout: A migrant boat sank off Tunisia with at least 13 missing and two rescued, as rights groups renew criticism of EU-backed border controls that they say normalize abuses. Libya political track (Tunis talks): UN-facilitated meetings in Tunis advanced Libya’s roadmap, with discussions on forming the High National Elections Commission and amending election laws, and a draft agreement initialed ahead of further talks in Libya. Regional detention spotlight: The Global Sumud Flotilla said Wael Nawar and three others remain in preventive detention in Tunisia, with Nawar starting a hunger strike over what it calls politically motivated charges.
