Protests against pollution in Gabas, Tunisia - the banner reads in English and Arabic "Stop pollution in Gabas, Stop pollution everywhere"

Tunisia: “We want to live”: the people of Gabès revolt against environmental destruction

The Tunisian Revolution opened the door to a wave of protest movements and the raising of social demands across the country.
