#UE #Tunisie Trois ans après la signature du protocole d'accord UE-Tunisie, plusieurs ONG dont HRW appellent la Commission européenne à prendre en compte la forte dégradation de la situation des droits humains en Tunisie. www.hrw.org/fr/news/2026...

Mass anti-immigration protests have spread across South Africa, following weeks-long demonstrations and an arbitrary “deadline” for undocumented migrants to leave the country. These demonstrations are causing a humanitarian crisis, with many people displaced and without food.

Après s’être abattue sur les opposants politiques, la « folie judiciaire » des autorités tunisiennes cible désormais les militants des droits humains ou journalistes qui dénoncent le tournant autoritaire. Les pays européens restent tétanisés #Tunisie www.lemonde.fr/idees/articl...

"Judicial madness" @lemonde.fr's Edito denounces Europe's paralysis in the face of #Tunisia's crackdown on dissent. Years of silence, elevated as flawed strategy by @eudiplomacy.bsky.social, emboldened repression. @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu: time to reverse course. www.lemonde.fr/en/opinion/a...

Deeply shocked by 8-year sentence against our colleague Saadia Mosbah from anti-discrimination CSO Mnemty in trial based on unfounded charges. @eudiplomacy.bsky.social must speak up, call for her release & seriously review its deeply flawed #Tunisia policy. www.arabnews.com/node/2648338...

A Tunis court today sentenced Sihem Bensedrine, 75, a prominent human rights defender to 25 years in prison in apparent retaliation for her work. The sentence reflects the cruelty of the governments attempt to strangle human rights in Tunisia. www.hrw.org/news/2026/06...

Je suivrai de près l'audience demain du DDH & avocat Ahmed Souab devant la Cour d'appel de Tunis. Le 31 octobre 2025, il avait été condamné à 5 ans d'emprisonnement & 3 ans de surveillance administrative sur la base d'accusations infondées. Il devrait être libéré immédiatement.

غدا جلسة محاكمة المحامي والمدافع المخضرم عن حقوق الإنسان أحمد صواب (69 عاما). لم يفعل سوى الدفاع عن متهمين والتعبير عن آرائه، ومع ذلك لاحقته السلطات التونسية بتهم الإرهاب واعتقلته. ينبغي لسلطات #تونس الإفراج عنه فورا والكف عن التنكيل بالمنتقدين والمعارضين. https://bit.ly/4rFlmD1

A Tunisian lawyer and human rights defender, Ahmed Souab, who was sentenced to prison on terrorism-related charges, will face a new trial on appeal on February 12. Tunisian authorities should immediately drop the unfounded charges and release him www.hrw.org/news/2026/02...

Hey @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu @eudiplomacy.bsky.social - Do you notice #Tunisia 's fall in authoritarianism, with 0 reaction from your side? Is a more repressive country in #EU's interest? Speechless Europe has for sure no leverage. www.rfi.fr/en/africa/20... www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12...

Les autorités tunisiennes ont arrêté 3 activistes de premier plan condamnés sur la base d'accusations injustifiées de complot et de terrorisme. Ces arrestations constituent la dernière étape du plan du président Kais Saied pour éliminer toute alternative à son pouvoir personnel.

Tunisian authorities recently arrested three prominent activists convicted on unjust charges of conspiracy and terrorism. The arrests are the latest step in President Kais Saied’s scheme to eliminate any alternative to his one-man rule.

#Tunisia 's arrest of prominent activists, following flawed conspiracy trial, should raise #EU's concerns, no? Instead, @eudiplomacy.bsky.social remain loudly silent, emboldening Kais Saied's repression. @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu: time to shift gear, speak up. www.hrw.org/news/2025/12...

باعتقال شيماء عيسى، والعياشي الهمامي، وأحمد الشابي بعد إدانتهم في "قضية التآمر"، تكون حكومة الرئيس قيس سعيّد قد وضعت الجزء الأكبر من المعارضة وراء القضبان. https://bit.ly/3KLljWu

#Tunisian authorities have arrested 2 prominent opposition figures & a well-known human rights defender in recent weeks after their unjust convictions in a mass sham trial & effectively succeeded in placing most of the political opposition behind bars @hrw.org www.hrw.org/news/2025/12...

#Tunisie : Les autorités ont arrêté 3 activistes de premier plan après leur condamnation injuste à l'issue d'un simulacre de procès portant sur des accusations de complot et terrorisme. www.hrw.org/fr/news/2025...

The arrest of Ayachi Hammami, a prominent human rights lawyer, was the latest sign of #Tunisia’s backsliding into authoritarianism. “He wasn’t punished for any crime, but for standing up against oppression and defending human rights.” @hrw.org www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/w...

Hearing disturbing news that Tunisian HRD & prominent lawyer Ayachi Hammami was arrested yesterday to serve a 5-year prison sentence on trumped up terrorism charges; I have urged the Tunisian authorities to stop criminalising HRDs & politicising the judiciary. srdefenders.org/information/...

الأحكام الجائرة والقاسية التي صدرت الأسبوع الماضي في "قضية التآمر" المسيّسة تعود بـ #تونس خطوات عدة إلى الوراء (تغطيتنا السابقة للمحاكمة https://bit.ly/47TyBb0)

A Tunis Appeal Court last week sentenced 34 defendants in the politically motivated “Conspiracy Case” to between 5 and 45 years in prison. These harsh sentences stem from a gross distortion of the justice system and are only meant to silence dissent. www.reuters.com/world/africa...

#Tunisia.ns protesting authoritarianism show more courage than EU Delg in Tunis. Is EU's utter silence on #Tunisia's repressive turn its way to implement @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu's deal? It's a blow to principles; it's also poor policy www.france24.com/en/live-news... @anouarelanouni.bsky.social

#Tunisia: Harsh sentences were issued in the notorious "conspiracy case" following sessions marred by serious violations. While some defendants were acquitted, other sentences included 45 years in prison. 👉 Tunisian authorities should revert these unjust sentences & release all political detainees.

صدرت أحكام قاسية في استئناف "قضية التآمر" سيئة الصيت في #تونس إثر جلسات تخللتها خروقات جسيمة. بينما تمت تبرئة بعض المتهمين، شملت الأحكام السَّجن 45 عاما. ينبغي للسلطات التونسية إلغاء هذه الأحكام الجائرة والإفراج عن جميع المعتقلين السياسيين.

Relieved to see aid workers on trial yesterday in #Tunisia can go free. But only because they already spent their sentence in jail. Colleagues from the Tunisian Refugee Council never have been charged in the first place. www.france24.com/fr/afrique/2...

Conseil tunisien pour les réfugiés : Djemali & Krimi ont été libérés hier soir, mais condamnés à 2 ans de prison (dont du sursis). Ils n'auraient jamais dû être inquiétés pr leur travail légitime et encore moins emprisonnés. Les autorités devraient annuler ces condamnations #Tunisie @hrw-fr.hrw.org

Among many politically-driven trials in #Tunisia is the one faced by 5 staff of Tunisian Council for Refugees, a key partner of the UN Refugee Agency . @eudiplomacy.bsky.social should stop ignoring the reality that its silence is complicity into deeper repression. www.hrw.org/news/2025/11...

Sonia Dahmani is imprisoned since May 2024 for remarks she made on the TV/radio under Decree-Law 54 on Cybercrime. The authorities even retaliated against her sister Ramla for fiercely advocating for her release & sentenced her in absentia to 2years in prison this July, under the same law. #Tunisia

Il n'y a aucun endroit sûr où se réfugier à #Gaza. Les forces israéliennes ont ordonné à des milliers de Palestinien·ne·s de la ville de Gaza d'évacuer alors que l'armée prépare une nouvelle offensive majeure. Les États doivent agir pour empêcher un génocide à Gaza.

In the absence of meaningful government action, the #GlobalSumudFlotilla is sailing to #Gaza in an intent to break Israel’s illegal blockade & deliver essential aid. Govts should take action to halt abuses, sanction Israel, and protect Flotilla activists. www.hrw.org/news/2025/09...
