Tunis under curfew after protests
Tunisian authorities have placed the area around the capital Tunis under curfew following protests by radical Islamists, it has been reported.
Several areas in the North African country's interior are also affected.
The official TAP news agency said the curfew is in place from 9pm to 5am local time.
Tunisian police fired warning shots earlier in the day in three suburbs of Tunis to disperse radical Islamist protesters after they set a security post ablaze and ransacked an art exhibit they called offensive to Islam.
The violent incidents were the latest in a series of protests by Islamist radicals.
