Transport by air, land and sea has been all but suspended in Tunisia as hundreds of thousands of state employees hold a 24-hour strike to demand better pay amid soaring inflation.
The powerful UGTT union that called the industrial action says that its one million members are observing the strike.
It's a major challenge to President Kais Saied, who has been ruling by decree after suspending parliament last year.
His government is proposing an austerity plan that includes a freeze on public sector wages to try to secure a $4bn (£3.3bn) loan from the International Monetary Fund.
