Mass Protest Demanding Dismantling Of Polluting Units Of Tunisian Chemical Group In Gabes
Protesters hold up the Tunisian and anti-pollution flags as they head towards the Tunisian Chemical Group's plants (GCT) in Gabes, Tunisia, on October 15, 2025, to protest and demand the dismantling of the units of the GCT. The mobilization comes after a surge in cases of respiratory problems, poisonings, and illnesses affecting students at a middle school located near the phosphate processing plant, sparking anger among a population exposed to chemical risks for more than fifty years. In 2017, Tunisian authorities promise the gradual dismantling of the polluting units of the Gabes chemical complex following strong protests against pollution. However, this decision is never fully implemented, and the population continues to suffer from massive pollution. (Photo by Chedly Ben Ibrahim/NurPhoto)
