Opposition activists and other opponents of Tunisian President Kais Saied protest in Tunis on Thursday, calling for his departure and for the restoration of democracy. Organisers say hundreds of people take part, rejecting “one-man rule” and warning against a slide toward dictatorship.

Protesters also call for the release of jailed opposition figures, activists and journalists. The demonstrations are presented as the latest challenge to Saied’s governance, driven by rising political and economic frustration in the country.

Both outlets describe the same event and motivations, including the scale of participation and the central demands, without emphasizing differing details or alternative explanations for the unrest.
