Tunisia has been under a state of emergency since 2015, and it was sparked by an attack that claimed the lives of 12 presidential guards and injured 16 civilians and guards.

The North African Arab nation has been undergoing a political crisis since last July when the Tunisian President dismissed Prime Minister Hicham Mechichi and suspended parliament.

In October, he announced the formation of a new government, without lifting the parliament's suspension.

Saied also dissolved a major body dealing with judicial independence, Supreme Judicial Council.

Saied's ruling brought to a close month of vehement criticism of the judges. He had repeatedly denounced the judiciary for taking too long to rule most notably in cases of corruption and terrorism.
