Tunisia-Ministry of Defence: Army stands ready to face any attempt to undermine the integrity of the national territory

The National Army stands ready to face any attempt to undermine the integrity of the national territory and will protect the republican regime and shield its institutions, the Ministry of National Defence said in a statement issued Friday.

In the wake of the tension registered in Remada, the Ministry asked for calm, urging prioritising the national interest given the delicate and critical time faced by Tunisia and the region in general.

The Ministry of Defence stated that in the face of the clashes that ignited in Remada, the military displayed restraint and attempted to contain the situation before it deteriorated, notwithstanding the acts of vandalism committed by some rioters who threw rocks at the façade of the military barracks in an attempt to provoke the soldiers.

The Ministry recalls that these protests corresponded with the rise in smuggling and illegal infiltration attempts on Tunisia’s south-eastern borders, stating that “military units will continue to vigorously fight these operations within the law.
