    TUNIS, July 13 (Reuters) - Tunisia's prime minister Elyes Fakhfakh said on Monday he will conduct a cabinet reshuffle in the coming days amid a row with the moderate Islamist Ennahda party, in what appears to be a step to remove Ennahda ministers in the government.

    Ennahda said on Monday that it seeks a new government, adding that the government of Fakhfakh had lost credibility due to an alleged suspicion of conflicts of interest involving prime minister. (Reporting By Tarek Amara)
