Chadian postal boycott of Israel: 29-8-1980 airmail comm cv ex J'LEM to MOUSSORO Chad, franked 27.15L during new "Old Shekel" currency period (starting 22 Feb 1980 - here worth 2.715 IS) & tied by 2 strikes of TLV-27 pmk;
at this time Chad under Libyan attack/occupation since 22 March (3rd Libyan incursion in Chadian-Libyan conflict/civil war, 1978-87), capital captured 16 Dec. - however
Chad suspended relations w/Israel already Sept. 1972 (under Libyan influence), hence this correspondence odd (locale is home to 2nd presidential residence): here received & stamped twice "relations suspended | return to sender" using Fr.-lang h/s K-Type-I & returned undelivered.
Only this example known of Chadian postal boycott, rare as from war/occupation period + Isr. currency change/inflationary postage rate.
