Tunisia migrants in ‘unsuitable conditions’: rights group

Tunis: More than half of Tunisia's mainly sub-Saharan migrants, refugees and asylum seekers are now living in “inadequate conditions”, a domestic rights group said on Tuesday. In its latest study on migration, the Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights (FTDES) found that “more than half” of Tunisia's migrants live “on the streets, public parks, camps and outlying areas”. Tunisia is a major point of departure for irregular migrants attempting the perilous Mediterranean sea crossing in search of a better life in Europe.
