Several Polisario militiamen were reportedly killed near the southern border of Morocco by an attack by the Royal Armed Forces (FAR).

In his latest periodic interview with the Algerian press, the President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, discussed the creation of the Maghreb bloc and the issue of the Sahara, while extending a hand to Morocco, a neighboring country with which Algeria, the protector of the Polisario, unilaterally severed diplomatic relations in August 2021.

Images showing a drone allegedly Moroccan shot down by the Polisario in the Sahara are circulating on social media. What is it really about?

The Polisario, protected by Algeria, accuses France of obstructing the restoration of peace and stability in the North-West African region, and denounces its blatant complicity with Morocco, which hinders the unity of the peoples of the Greater Maghreb and cooperation and integration between its countries.

Algeria, the protector of the Polisario, is taking a new hostile gesture against Rabat. It has authorized a pseudo Rif National Party (PNR), known for its aspirations for independence of the Rif in Morocco, to inaugurate its official representation in the upscale neighborhoods of Algiers, in Poirson, in a villa belonging to the authorities.

Algeria, protector of the Polisario, is seeking the support of Mozambique to counter Morocco on the Sahara issue at the UN. These two countries sit on the Security Council as non-permanent members.

The Polisario has reacted to Spain’s decision to transfer the management of the airspace of the Sahara to Morocco, in exchange for the opening of the customs offices of Ceuta and Melilla.

A Moroccan army drone is said to have killed four Polisario Front members after they entered the buffer zone via Mauritania.

The Polisario Front plans to take legal action against the Spanish group Senator Hotels & Resorts, which has announced the upcoming opening of a hotel in the city of Dakhla , in the Moroccan Sahara.

After extending the 50 km defense wall to the east in 2021 to secure Touizgui in the Assa-Zag province and complete the security system to the east, the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) have deployed heavy artillery in the same area.

While countries like France congratulate Morocco on its accession to the presidency of the Human Rights Council (HRC), the Polisario cries out in indignation.

The Polisario has threatened the organizers of the Morocco Desert Challenge, an event scheduled from December 27 to January 10, 2024, with stages in the Sahara, including a passage through El Guerguerate, where the Moroccan army had forcibly dislodged separatists.
