Tunisia prolongs buffer zone for security
Tunisia has decided to extend the buffer zone in the south, which was established in 2013 for security reasons, for an additional year starting from August 29. The area covers desert regions along the borders with Algeria and Libya, and entry is only permitted with prior authorization. The authorities aim with this extension to combat arms and goods smuggling, address illegal migration, and prevent movements by terrorists and extremists across the borders, while allowing the legitimate use of means, including weapons if necessary. Tunisia continues to regularly carry out security operations in the area since its establishment, following a series of attacks and assassinations targeting security forces and politicians.
