Tunisia’s healthcare system is increasingly strained by the growing exodus of doctors and paramedical staff, driven by low pay, poor conditions and failing health policies.

Two weeks of public unrest over failing health and social services boiled over in Agadir on Sunday, September 14, 2025, putting Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch’s administration under intense scrutiny.

A mounting health crisis and growing public anger have gripped Agadir, a city in central Morocco, as residents took to the streets to protest what they described as “catastrophic” and even “deadly” healthcare services.

Egypt’s healthcare crisis stems from the army’s mismanagement, leaving hospitals and patients to bear the cost of a collapsing medical supply system.
