The Ministry stressed that the Tunisian civil protection teams have made concerted “timely and planned” efforts, targeting different sectors and areas seriously affected by the disaster.

The Tunisian teams conducted numerous search, rescue and water pumping operations from September 13 to 17, the same source said.
