The horrifying moment Tunisian security forces began beating air passengers has been caught on camera, amid airport chaos.
Tunisair has cancelled flights and reportedly does not have enough aircrafts fit for flying, Jeune Afrique has reported.
Following multiple flights being cancelled, passengers were left trapped for days in Tunis-Carthage airport without hotels or temporary visas.
People who were forced to stay behind at the airport, many of whom were Sub-Saharan African passengers, were callously beaten by Tunisian security forces for reportedly assaulting the police.
However, the brutal footage shows baton-wielding police savagely attacking the air passengers who fall to the floor in agony.
Sub-Saharan African migrants have previously been treated with contempt by Tunisia.
In April, dozens of refugees and migrants in Tunisia staged a sit-in in front of the office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in the Tunisian capital, Tunis.
They were demanding to be evacuated to other countries following the ill-treatment they had been facing in Tunisia.
