Dozens of protestors in Tunisia called for the release of Opposition Members who have been arrested since February as part of an investigation into "plotting against state security." President Kais Saied, who took full power in 2021, has described them as "terrorists." The protestors gathered outside the Court of Appeal in Tunis, denouncing a judiciary "under orders." European parliamentarians have expressed opposition to any "unconditional agreement" between the European Union and Tunisia due to the actions of President Saied. The campaign of arrests has targeted prominent political leaders, and Amnesty International has called it a "politically motivated witch-hunt."
