History

Historical Context

The Oslo Accords, signed on September 13, 1993, by Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), aimed to establish a framework for peace and mutual recognition. This agreement followed the Madrid Conference of 1991 and sought to resolve territorial disputes through a two-state solution. However, ongoing tensions and military actions in Gaza highlight the challenges of implementing the Accords and achieving lasting stability in the region.
