Protesters in Tunisia dispersed by police

Tunisian security forces dispersed a crowd of protesters in the capital demanding that the government step down. Several hundred protesters were met with tear gas and truncheons on Monday when they assembled in front of the Interior Ministry headquarters.
The former Prime Minister of Jordan, Abdoul Ilhan al-Khatib, arrived in Tunis in his capacity of UN Secretary General special envoy with the task to find a way out of the tense situation.
