The Tunisian Combatant Group (Arabic: الجماعة التونسية المقاتلة, Jama’a Combattante Tunisienne; French: Groupe Combattant Tunisien) or TCG was a loose network of terrorists with connections to Al-Qaeda that was founded in 2000 and aspired to install an Islamist government in Tunisia.[2] According to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), TCG is believed to have had terrorist cells in France, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and in the United Kingdom.[3] By the 2010s, after its founders had been arrested and a long period of silence, it was not clear whether the group still existed.[5]
