Palestine–Tunisia relations

Tunisian President Habib Bourguiba had a keen interest in finding a resolution to the Palestinian conflict. He put forth a suggestion to establish a two-state solution based on the pre-1923 boundaries of the former Mandatory Palestine, encompassing Jordan as well. After the defeat of the Palestine Liberation Organization in the 1982 Lebanon War, Tunisia received the Palestinian leadership, including Arafat. They left in 1994 after the Oslo Accords. In October 1985, the Israeli Air Force launched Operation Wooden Leg in Tunis, which led to many deaths including among Tunisian civilians. Three years later, it assassinated the senior leader, Abu Jihad, in a targeted killing operation.
