Clashes in Tunisian town after Libyan border closed: union

"Youths burned tyres and threw rocks at cars of the police and Libyan travellers," the source added.
The town, located some 30 kilometres (20 miles) from the border, has a major market for Libyan-produced goods, and upon which most of its residents are dependent for jobs.
The border crossing was closed by the Libyan authorities, said the union source, further angering Ben Guerdane residents already unhappy with an 150-dinar (80-euro, 100-dollar) tax Libya imposed on cars crossing the border.
