Yasser Arafat: Life and Times of a Palestinian Icon | From Guerrilla Leader to Peacemaker

This video delves into the life and legacy of Yasser Arafat, a charismatic and controversial figure who played a central role in the Palestinian struggle for self-determination.

He signed the Oslo Accords in 1993, a significant step towards peace with Israel, but his legacy remains contentious due to accusations of corruption and unfulfilled promises.
