Resilience Prevails: African Migrants Overcome Racial Attacks in Tunisia

African migrants in the Tunisian coastal city of Sfax have faced xenophobic attacks following the fatal stabbing of a local man during an altercation with migrants from sub-Saharan Africa. Videos of the attacks, which occurred on July 4th, show masked perpetrators inciting violence against black Africans. The police seemingly did not intervene, and the following day, the authorities forcibly removed over 100 migrants from the city, driving them to the Tunisian-Libyan border. Human Rights Watch has received videos showing migrants with injuries allegedly inflicted by the authorities. Tunisia's President Kais Saied denies mistreatment and claims the migrants are receiving aid. The situation has sparked outrage and discussions about racism and violence in the city.
