(ANSA) - TUNIS, JULY 26 - According to the provisions of the President of the Republic Kais Saied, the Tunisian forces closed this morning the local branch of the Arab TV based in Qatar, Al Jazeera. Journalists and employees were warned in good time to leave the sites, said the director of the Tunis office, Lotfi Hajji.
Shortly before, Al Jazeera on its Facebook page, based on "well-informed Tunisian sources", had written that Prime Minister Hichem Mechichi is not under arrest but at his home and that he intends to reunite the Council of Ministers anyway.
