Description
Sub-Saharan African migrants wait outside and inside Sfax station, some trying to purchase tickets to Tunis, as they attempt to flee the coastal city, where racial tensions is flaring into targeted violence. "We're really scared to be here and that's why we want to leave Sfax at all costs," Jonathan Tchamou, a Congolese man among a group of migrants, tells AFP. The latest unrest started after the funeral of a 41-year-old Tunisian man who was stabbed to death Monday in an altercation between locals and migrants, which led to the arrests of three suspects from Cameroon.
