Dozens arrested in Tunisia anti-pollution protests: activists
TUNIS: Police in Gabes, Tunisia have arrested dozens of people in demonstrations against a chemical factory which locals blame for pollution and a range of health issues, a local campaign group and a lawyer said Saturday. Thousands have rallied in the southern coastal city in recent days calling for the closure of a phosphate processing plant, which they say is behind a rise in gas poisonings and other pollution-related health problems. “The arrests targeted night protesters,” said Mehdi Talmoudi, a lawyer and member of the local branch of the Tunisian Bar Association.
