Emirates Airlines will not let Tunisia land

Due to not allowing some Tunisians to board the plane, the country's authorities did not allow Dubai-based airlines to land in Tunis.

There was intense anger inside the country about the issue of not allowing some Tunisians to board the plane.

Human rights organizations have called the matter "discriminatory".
Tunisia's Transport Ministry says Emirates will not have the restrictions until the airline operates in accordance with international law.

However, the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Foreign Affairs says it is delayed due to security information.

In a message on Twitter, he said, "We appreciate and respect Tunisia's women."

Tunisia's local media said that the women of Dubai-bound Tunisian women were not allowed to fly on the Emirates flight. The incident happened for a few days.

Some women told Reuters news agency that their trip was delayed and they were told they needed more testing.

After the Tunisian revolution in 2011, the country is trying to improve relations with the United Arab Emirates.
