Mount Chaambi ambush (2013)
On the Feminism and the Tunisian Revolution map as “Mount Chaambi”
29 Jul 2013 — On Tunisia’s highest mountain, armed men linked to al-Qaeda ambush an army patrol and kill eight soldiers. Mount Chaambi is a closed military zone, where the state fights a low-level insurgency for years. Remember them.
