Tunisia faces an economic crisis, leading to subdued Ramadan celebrations and increased poverty.

Tunisia faces an economic crisis, leading to subdued Ramadan celebrations due to decreased purchasing power, soaring prices, recession, and rising unemployment. Over a third of the population now lives below the poverty line, and food prices have tripled. The government rejected a $2B loan from the IMF, opting to repay debt instead of supplying basic foodstuffs, causing supply shortages.
