(Reuters) – Illegal migrants in Tunisia received three billion dinars (about $1 billion) in remittances from sub-Sahara countries during the first half of 2023, an official from the national security council said in a meeting late on Friday.
President Kais Saied, who chaired the meeting, said, “This figure is shocking and indicates that Tunisia is being targeted.”
