The Court of First Instance in Tunisia issued a verdict on Friday prohibiting the entry of an Israeli delegation to ito the Tunisian territories to participate in a conference on religions.
The Appeals Chamber of the Court of First Instance in Tunis on Friday prevented the entry or accommodation of the Israeli delegation to participate in the World Forum for Interfaith Dialogue.
The case was filed against the Tunisian Scout organization by the National Commission for Supporting Arab Resistance Anti-Normalization and Zionism the Republican Party and the People’s Movement.
These bodies demanded that the organization be prevented from receiving hosting or allowing the participation of representatives of the International Forum of Jewish Scouts and all those who hold Israeli citizenship at the World Forum for Interreligious Dialogue to be held between 4 and 8 November.
For its part the Tunisian Scouts Organization denied it had any intention to host Israelis as part of the projected forum stressing the group’s unyielding pro-Palestine position and support for Palestinians’ right to establish an independent state with Jerusalem as its eternal and undivided capital.
Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas hailed the court ruling dubbing it a sign of Tunisians’ genuine sympathy with the Palestinians throughout their anti-occupation struggle.
