More than 50 people, mostly policemen, have been injured in protests over the reopening of a rubbish dump on the Tunisian holiday island of Djerba.

Interior ministry spokesman Khaled Tarrouche said police were pelted with rocks and firebombs in Guellala.

Several police cars were also set alight before the crowd was dispersed with tear gas.

Residents had been promised that the unofficial dump would remain closed, local media said.

Mr Tarrouche said trouble flared when authorities in Guellala decided to reopen the dump until 2013.

On Saturday morning about 40 protesters blocked the site and after talks with officials failed, security forces fired tear gas to disperse them, he said.

However, during the afternoon, a larger crowd formed in the centre of Guellala and attacked police, he added.

"A large number of protesters in the centre of Guellala attacked a police post with rocks and petrol bombs," Mr Tarrouche said.
