Tunisia faces summer crisis and calls for government dismissal
Tunisia is experiencing a difficult summer amid an unprecedented heatwave and rising temperatures that have reached 50 degrees Celsius in some areas. This has been accompanied by frequent power and water outages, as well as shortages of basic commodities, leading to an escalation in social protests. The Tunisian Observatory for Economic and Social Rights recorded over 1,101 protest actions in July — the highest in a decade — primarily driven by water and electricity cuts. The demands have shifted from improving services to political issues, with increasing calls for the removal of the government amid the crisis, along with demands for the president’s resignation as well. This is a result of the government and regime's failure to manage successive crises, with ongoing street pressure and criticism from within the circle of the president’s supporters and those aligned with July 25.
