In turn, Ennahda commented on the developments by saying, "Anarchist groups attacked some headquarters across the country."

The movement condemned what it called "criminal gangs," saying, "They are being pushed from outside and inside to attack our headquarters."

They called on all parties, organizations, supporters of democracy, and the state to condemn these attacks.

Tunisia is going through a political crisis that is taking on several dimensions, as President Kais Saied condemned a few days ago the political investments amid the COVID-19 pandemic, noting that the country needs a ‘political vaccine’ while some "want to politically benefit from the pandemic."

Saied called on the Tunisian people to rise to the level of the crisis the country is going through, indicating Tunisia will not lose the war, saying it will face it with all its capabilities.

Last month, President Saied stated that he is open to dialogue, denying what was going around about him describing some Tunisian political parties as ‘non-patriotic.’
