Thousands of Tunisians took to the streets of Tunis on Saturday to protest against the country’s president, Qais Saied, following his decision to freeze parliament, assume executive power and reject talks with the Islamist opposition party Ennahda, which is the largest party in parliament.

Demonstrators gathered in front of the municipal theatre where they chanted, waived Tunisian flags and held slogans denouncing the president.

Last July, amid a series of protests over the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, Saied sacked Prime Minister Hichem Mechichi and dissolved the parliament, prompting both celebrations and protests in Tunis and across the country.
