Description
Security forces deploy heavily around Tunisia's parliament on Friday to block MPs demanding access to the legislature, whose activities were suspended by President Kais Saied in July. AFP reporters saw uniformed and plain-clothes police using metal barriers to encircle the building in Le Bardo district of Greater Tunis, blocking access for pedestrians and cars. More than 80 deputies, mostly from the Islamist-inspired Ennahdha party and its ally Qalb Tounes, had called for members of the 217-seat assembly to gather outside and demand it be reopened.
