Tunisia: Activists plan to protest at Habib Thamer Park in Tunis April 27

Event

Pro-Palestinian activists plan to protest at Habib Thamer Park in Tunis from 14:00 April 27. The demonstration comes amid increased tensions and violence between Israeli security forces and Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, notably at the Temple Mount/Al-Haram ash-Sharif compound. Dozens to hundreds of individuals could attend the gathering.

Increased security and localized transport disruptions are likely near Habib Thamer Park the afternoon of April 27. Clashes between police and protesters cannot be ruled out, particularly if demonstrators are overly disruptive or if they ignore police orders to disperse.

Advice

Avoid the protest due to the potential for clashes. Heed the advice of security personnel. Allow additional time if traveling through the affected area April 27.
