Tunisia’s President, Kais Saied, has sacked his finance minister and appointed a magistrate to the role.

Michket Slama Khaldi will take on the country’s finance portfolio, the presidency announced on Facebook overnight from Wednesday to Thursday, alongside images of her taking the oath of office.

The presidency gave no further details, nor did it mention outgoing minister Sihem Boughdiri Nemsia.

The new finance minister had headed a national commission tasked with recovering embezzled public funds.

Tunisia has over the past two years suffered sporadic shortages of basic items such as milk, sugar and flour.

Recently, there has also been a scarcity of domestic gas cylinders, which are widely used for cooking and heating.
