Tunisians March In Capital In Solidarity With Gabes Anti-pollution Protests

A protester holds up a placard reading in Arabic ''Environmental solutions, police solutions'' while shouting slogans during a march heading towards the headquarters of the Tunisian Chemical Group in Tunis, Tunisia, on October 18, 2025, to express solidarity with the residents of Gabes, southern Tunisia, in their ongoing anti-pollution protests. For several days, mass demonstrations take place in Gabes to protest and demand the immediate dismantling of the industrial units of the Tunisian Chemical Group's plants (GCT). The mobilization in Gabes follows a surge in respiratory problems, poisonings, and illnesses among students at a middle school near the phosphate processing plant, fueling anger among a population long exposed to pollution and chemical risks.
