On the airport of Tozeur in western Tunisia, two aircraft Boeing 747 of Iraqi Airways are waiting since late 1990, early 1991. Saddam Hussein had put them here to protect from the first Gulf War (January 1991). They are waiting regulations of dispute with Kuwait in a new white paint and some traces of its original green color.
