Tunisia may lose its chances of hosting the World Chess Championship for schoolchildren in 2019, thanks to a comprehensive campaign launched by the Israeli educational organization StandWithUs against the host Muslim country's intention to boycott the Israeli representation in the competition, according to Yisrael Hayom.
The campaign was launched after seven-year-old Lial Levitan won the European Schools' individual championship, earning a place in the World Championship in Tunisia where she will not be able to play due to visa restrictions.
