TUNIS, May 4 (NNN-Xinhua) — Tunisia announced on Friday the extension of a state of emergency for one more month starting from May 6 to June 4, 2019.
This is the first time, since November 2015, that the decision to extend the state of emergency has been published in the official Journal of the Republic of Tunisia (JORT).
JORT is the official bi-weekly Journal published by the country in which all legislative events (laws and decrees), regulations and official statements are published.
