Updated: 11 Nov 2013

Nine years on from his death, the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat remains one of the most controversial, and undoubtedly the most famous figure in Palestinian history. For many people remains a symbol of the Palestinian struggle for independence. Now a forensic report by Swiss scientists has confirmed what many have suspected or believed for the past nine years: that there is evidence to support the theory that Arafat was poisoned with the radioactive chemical polonium. We explain who Yasser Arafat was and why someone might have wanted to poison him.

Updated: 04 Jul 2012

A nine-month investigation by Al Jazeera discovered rare, radioactive polonium on the ex-Palestinian leader's final belongings. The finding suggests that Arafat was poisoned with polonium, a rare, highly radioactive element. The polonium was found in blood, sweat, urine and saliva stains on his personal effects, and the levels recorded by forensic pathologists in Switzerland - who studied the items - do not occur naturally. Al Jazeera's Clayton Swisher reports.
