Tunisian Journalists Rally In Tunis Over Press Card Restrictions And Media Crackdown
A Tunisian journalist shows his press card while holding a sign reading in Arabic, ''censoring information constitutes a violation of citizens' rights,'' during a demonstration organized by the National Union of Tunisian Journalists (SNJT) that brings together dozens of journalists outside the Prime Minister's Office at Government Square in the Casbah, Tunis, Tunisia, on November 20, 2025, to demand press freedoms and improved working conditions. The rally denounces what journalists describe as systematic restrictions on media and press independence, including the refusal to issue or renew press cards and accreditations for both local and foreign journalists. Tunisian journalists also decry the repressive use of Decree-Law 54, which they say targets critical reporting rather than combating misinformation. International press freedom organizations, including the IFJ, view these measures as part of a broader crackdown on independent journalism. (Photo by Chedly Ben Ibrahim/NurPhoto)
