This was the scene at tunis airport on friday as women turned up for flights the start of a u. I. Travel ban against women and girls of all ages to be given it was really me not to be different i came here and found chaos and theyre saying thousand indian woman under the age of thirty cannot afford emerick plane vanished remember that money is but i arrived here only for a man to come and tell me that any woman who holds a tunis in passport is banned from boarding this airline.
