Anti-government Protest Amid Economic Turmoil In The Capital Tunis
A young female protester raises a loaf of bread as she is suffocated by the pepper spray used by the security forces during an anti-government demonstration held on Avenue Habib Bourguiba in the capital Tunis, Tunisia, on January 19, 2021, to protest against the government of the prime minister Hichem Mechichi, and in support of the protest movements that hit Tunisia in several cities overnight over the past few days. Protesters clashed with the security forces who fired tear gas and used pepper spray in attempt to disperse them. They also claimed for the release of youths arrested by the police during the latest protests, and denounced the high cost of living and the increase in poverty.
