A Tunisian court has handed down harsh sentences, including lengthy jail terms, to several opposition figures in a case that highlights the ongoing tension between the government and political opponents. The defendants, who include prominent human rights activists and politicians, were accused of various charges related to alleged attempts to destabilize the country. This verdict follows a wave of crackdowns on dissent and civil liberties in Tunisia since President Kais Saied’s controversial power grab last year. Experts warn that this sentence could further fuel political instability and erode trust in the judicial system.
