On Saturday morning, Arab press touched upon the situation in Idlib, in addition to the French moves against extremist organizations

"A new withdrawal of the Turkish occupation is expected from De-escalation."

The beginning is with the Syrian issue, and in this context, Al-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper said: “Yesterday (Friday) information was reported about the Turkish forces beginning to dismantle a new military observation post in southern Idlib, amid the escalation of the regime's bombardment in the region.”

The newspaper quoted local sources as saying, "The Turkish forces have begun preparing to withdraw from their observation point in the village of Maarhatt, south of Maarat al-Numan, along the Aleppo-Hama road (F5)."

And added" after dismantling the Turkish state its largest observation points in Mork in north Hama, and continued to withdra from the Sher Maghar point in Jabal Shahshabo in the same region, as part of an agreement with Russia to evacuate the Turkish observation points from the regime-controlled areas."

"French measures against political Islam organizations worry the Tunisian Brotherhood"

Regarding the French measures against political Islam organizations, Al-Arab newspaper said: “France is implementing rapid measures to confront terrorism after the Nice attack, which was carried out by the Tunisian Ibrahim al-Issawi, which killed three civilians and before that, the murder of the teacher, Samuel Patty. Among these measures are the dismantling of associations affiliated with political Islam and deportation of dozens Young men suspected of adopting extremist ideas to their countries, and this topic will be the focus of French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin visit to Tunisia and Algeria.

During this visit, the French Minister of Interior held talks with President Qais Saeed, Prime Minister Hesham al-Mishishi, Minister of Foreign Affairs Othman al-Jarandi, and his Tunisian counterpart Tawfiq Sharaf al-Din.

This comes at a time when civil and human rights organizations have warned of French pressure on Tunisia and the confusion between the issue of illegal immigrants and terrorism.

A group of organizations - including the Tunisian Association of Democratic Women and the Tunisian Association for the Defense of Individual Freedoms - warned of “using terrorist attacks to put pressure the Tunisian government to accept the mass forced returns of migrants and to open detention centers in Tunisia.”

Tunisian observers say that the return of dozens of extremists will make them a time bomb that could bring security difficulties to the country, and it may open the door to other countries that detain Tunisian extremists - as is the case in Syria, Iraq, Turkey and Libya - to pressure Tunisia to recover the hundreds of terrorists who participated in the war.

Observers point out that the angry French mood against political Islam, which may go beyond the deportation of extremists or illegal immigrants, may affect the Islamic Ennahda Movement as it has been a front for government in Tunisia since 2011, and its presence contributed in one way or another to facilitating waves of immigration to France.

The Islamic Renaissance Movement, headed by Rashid al-Ghannouchi, pre-empted the visit of the French Minister of the Interior by disavowing its intellectual identity, by refusing to include it in the political Islam trend, which France has come to view as "the source of evil that destroys the foundations of the republic."

In Libya, Al-Bayan newspaper said: “Tunisia is preparing to host the Libyan Inclusive Dialogue Forum, starting from the day after tomorrow, Monday, while, “Al-Bayan” learned that the forum will witness the approval of the formation of a new presidential council, and that the side negotiations for days have focused on alliances to determine the main figures who will assume leadership positions.
