AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Heatwave & Care in Prisons: Amnesty International urged Tunisia to protect prisoners during the ongoing 50C heatwave, highlighting risks for older detainees and those with chronic illness or disabilities, and calling for ventilation, safe water, medical care and access to air-conditioned spaces. Opposition Health Alarm: Lawyers and Ennahda say jailed leader Rached Ghannouchi is in “critical condition” after fainting and severe exhaustion, while authorities reportedly blocked visits by lawyers and family. Water Disruptions for Health: SONEDE reported a main pipeline failure cutting drinking water to areas including Farhat Hached University Hospital and several neighborhoods, with gradual restoration expected from early Friday. Electricity Strain & Public Anger: Tunisia saw protests linked to continuing blackouts during the heatwave, with hospitals reporting increased cases tied to respiratory stress. Aesthetic Medicine Crackdown: Tunisia’s parliamentary committee discussed a push to curb illegal aesthetic medicine practices, warning of procedures by unqualified people in unlicensed centers and urging stronger oversight of media promotions. Animal Health Pilot: Tunisia plans a pilot BCG vaccination programme against bovine tuberculosis to test effectiveness and risks before any wider rollout.
