Tunisian journalists and activists began demonstrations against Tuesday’s visit by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, displaying a large banner of the kingdom’s de facto leader with a chainsaw to protest the killing of critic Jamal Khashoggi.
MBS, as the power behind the Saudi throne is known, is expected to arrive in the North African country as part of his first overseas trip since the murder of Khashoggi at the kingdom’s consulate in Istanbul last month provoked an international outcry and strained ties with some western countries.
