The Gabes Groupe Chimique Tunisien industrial complex. I’d hate to think what’s in that air!

A roadside stand.

Libyan gas for sale. The price of gasoline in Tunisia is government set. In Libya the gas is much cheaper. People actually drive several hundred kilometers from Libya into Tunisia to sell the gas at a slightly lower price than the official Tunisian price which turns them some sort of a profit. That gas must just about be free in Libya to make the economics work out!

I wonder how often these roadside gas stands explode?
