Issued in 1986, this stamp commemorates the 17th Arab Scout Camp, held in Salalah, Oman, from 20 to 31 August 1986. The event brought together Scout organizations from across the Arab world to participate in outdoor activities, leadership training, cultural exchange, and community service programs.
