Tunisia Protest In Solidarity With Detained Gaza Flotilla Organisers
Demonstrators chant slogans and raise placards featuring portraits of detained Global Sumud Flotilla members during a gathering of pro-Palestinian activists in Tunis, Tunisia, on April 4, 2026. The demonstration protests the detention of Tunisian organizers of the Global Sumud Flotilla. Participants also express opposition to Israel's proposed death penalty law, which would allow for the execution of Palestinians tried in military courts. Several members of the Tunisian coordination of the Global Sumud Flotilla's first mission have been arrested, including Wael Naouar, his wife Jawaher Channa, Nabil Chennoufi, Dr. Mohamed Amine Bennour, and Sana M'hidli. On March 16, a Tunisian judge ordered their pre-trial detention, citing suspicions of money laundering under anti-terrorism legislation, as well as fraud and alleged misuse of donated funds. The case is linked to a fundraising campaign conducted during the Global Sumud Flotilla in September 2025. Tunisian pro-Palestinian organizations and Gaza flotilla organizers criticize the detentions, accusing Tunisian authorities of targeting activists supporting the Palestinian cause and calling for their release.
