The Tunisian League for the Defence of Human Rights (LTDH) has condemned increasing power and water outages across the country, asserting they infringe upon citizens’ fundamental rights. In a statement released on July 17, 2026, the LTDH argued that the frequent and extended interruptions to essential services constitute a serious failure. The organization is demanding a full investigation into the causes of these disruptions and their impact on the population. They believe access to electricity and water are basic human rights, and consistent access is vital for daily life and economic activity. The LTDH’s statement highlights growing public frustration and concern over the deteriorating infrastructure. This condemnation comes as citizens struggle with the impact of unreliable utilities, raising questions about government responsibility and resource management. The group hopes an enquiry will lead to necessary improvements and prevent further violations of citizens’ rights.
