The President of Tunisia has fled the country following another day of anti-government demonstrations. Zine El Abidine Ben Ali leaves Tunisia after 23 years of authoritarian rule. Prime Minister Mohammed Yanouchi said he's assuming power with an interim council, but it remains unclear who exactly IS in control of the country - and - what role the army is playing in these unprecedented events in North Africa. Ben Ali's departure came after anti-government protests across the country threatened to spiral out of control in recent days.
