Tunisia, Islamic party sit-in against the president’s “coup d’etat”. Al Jazeera headquarters closed

“Frozen” parliament, dissolved government, premier under arrest, parliamentary immunity suspended: radical action decided by the president Kais Saied it is a fundamental turning point for Tunisian democracy. The head of state appeals to article 80 of the Constitution, which speaks of “serious danger and malfunctioning” of the institutions. Saied rejects the accusations of Ennahda, who cries out for a coup d’état and is preparing to mobilize militants and the population, and in the meantime he has banned the president of the Tunisian parliament and leader of Ennahda from leaving the country Rached Ghannouchi, and to 64 other deputies against whom legal proceedings are underway.
