Libyan shoots two Tunisians at border

A Libyan man has shot two Tunisians on the shared border reinforcing fears of the deteriorating security situation. The two wounded citizens were taken to Syphax hospital with gunshots in their legs and feet according to a medical source. Ras Jedir border was reopened today after a week of closure following a series of violent incidents. The Tunisian Union for Industry had warned earlier of declining trade relations between Tunisia and Libya because of the deteriorating security situation at the border. Tunisia has also issued a security alert at its borders with Algeria after arresting a suspected terror cell, linked to al-Qaeda.
