Asylum Seekers in Tunisia Remain in Limbo
Asylum seekers in Tunisia have been left to live in limbo after police used teargas to disperse them outside of the U.N. High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) in Tunis on Tuesday. The migrants, mostly from sub-Saharan Africa, are seeking to be evacuated to other countries since President Kais Saied claimed without providing evidence that migrants from the region were causing crime and represented a "plot" to change Tunisia's demographic makeup. "I am jobless and homeless, and have nowhere to go," said Omar Khaled Ismail, a Sudanese asylum seeker in front of the Organization for Migration headquarters in Tunis.
