At least 49 inmates broke out of a prison in Tunisia on Sunday night, the country's state-run Tunis Afrique Presse reported.

The incident occurred in Gabes, in the southeastern part of the North African country. It is the latest mass prison break in the turbulent Muslim world.

According to CNN News, Security forces have detained 13 of the escapees. There has been international concern over recent prison breaks. Prison breaks are a known strategy of al Qaeda, a CNN analyst says.
