Breaking news from Tunis.... Word has reached civil society members here
at WSIS that a group of protesters in downtown Tunis have been
surrounded by riot police. The protesters were apparently leaving the
headquarters of a group of Tunisian hunger strikers when the incident
began.
I spoke with a representative from AMARC, the World Association of
Community Radio, who has been in contact with people on the scene with
the protestors. Please note that all of this information is coming to
me second hand, so I cannot confirm the exact details of what is going
on, but here is what I was told.
More details on my blog:

I'll post an update if I can get more information. Stay tuned... -andy
