Thousands demand union rights and civic freedoms in large Tunisia...

Thousands of demonstrators gathered in Tunis to protest what they described as a decline in union rights and civic freedoms. The rally, organized by the Tunisian General Labour Union, was one of the largest political demonstrations in recent times and highlighted growing tensions between the union and President Kais Saied.

Protesters marched through central Tunis, chanting slogans demanding the protection of workers' rights and expressing concern over rising poverty and hunger. The union's leadership called for the release of political prisoners and fair trials, vowing to continue its struggle for social and national rights.

The demonstration follows recent strikes that disrupted transport services and increased pressure on the government to address economic challenges. There has been no official response from authorities regarding the protest.
