Tunisian Opposition Leader Ghannouchi Collapses in 52°C Prison Cell

Rached Ghannouchi, 85, jailed leader of Tunisia's Ennahda party, fainted in Mornaguia prison as temperatures hit 52°C (126°F). Witness Haifa Chebbi says detainees occupy 16-square-metre cells with two hours outside daily. Ghannouchi, sentenced to life in June 2026, was hospitalized in April. The UN has flagged Tunisia's opposition trials for fair-trial violations.
