Tunisian President Kais Saeid has dismissed the head of the national television station, Mohamed Lassaad Dahech, and appointed a provisional replacement.

Earlier Mr Saeid sacked a large number of senior government officials.

He assumed executive and judicial powers at the weekend after suspending parliament and removing the prime minister.
