Tunisia Journalists Call for Al-Yousfi's Release
A petition has been issued by professors at the Institute of Journalism in Tunisia calling for the release of journalist Mohamed Al-Youssef, the editor-in-chief of the website "Al-Katiba" and a faculty member at the institute. He was detained on September 4, 2026, while participating in a radio program about the water crisis. The signatories expressed their concern over his deteriorating health condition and the fact that he underwent surgery, demanding guarantees for his medical care and an extension of his release in accordance with his legal rights. The professors emphasized that journalistic practices should not be used as pretexts for imprisonment, reaffirming the importance of protecting media freedom and independence in Tunisia. They condemned the attempt to restrict journalistic work through judicial procedures, considering that the case threatens the future of press freedom and the role of the media in oversight and critique.
