Anniversary of Brahmi's assassination
Today, Tunisia commemorates the 13th anniversary of the assassination of Mohamed Brahmi, a leader in the Popular Movement and one of the founders of the People's Current Party. He is also regarded as one of the symbols of the Tunisian Revolution that began in 2011. Security forces killed him with a gunshot outside his home on July 25, 2013, six months after the assassination of his colleague Shukri Belaid, with the aim of eliminating revolutionary figures and weakening the national project. Brahmi was among the most prominent supporters of the revolution's victory and a staunch opponent of attempts to dismantle democracy. He participated in building the foundation of the national liberation project and continued the struggle for national sovereignty and justice. Tunisia affirms that his martyrdom and the symbolic assassinations of revolutionaries reflect the ongoing challenges it faces in safeguarding democratic gains, especially as the 69th anniversary of the proclamation of the Republic approaches, a celebration marked by significant reforms in state institutions and the constitution in 2022.
