Tunisia's Crackdown on Press Freedom: The Silencing of Mohamed Yousfi The precarious state of press freedom in Tunisia has left many in the international community watching with growing concern.
On September 5, a judge ordered the arrest of prominent journalist Mohamed Yousfi, further solidifying the notion that President Kais Saied's administration is intent on silencing the country's remaining independent voices.
Yousfi, editor in chief of investigative news website Al Qatiba and vocal critic of President Saied, was detained outside Radio Express FM while en route to an interview.
