UAE says has information that Tunisian women 'might be terrorists'

TUNIS - The United Arab Emirates has information that Tunisian women or women traveling on Tunisian passports might commit "terrorist acts" in the Gulf country, Tunisia's state news agency said.

Tunisia late on Sunday suspended flights from Dubai carrier Emirates to Tunis, with officials saying the airline was refusing to carry female Tunisian travelers.

Emirates has given no reason for not allowing female Tunisians to board its flights since Friday.
