Facing failure to achieve any breakthrough since November 13, 2020, when the Polisario Front “declared war” on Morocco and announced its withdrawal from the ceasefire agreement, the separatist movement has called for a “thorough and independent investigation. ” “Moroccan Drone Engagement with Civilian Targets.”
The movement’s accusations specifically target Spain. The Sahrawi Mine Action Coordination Office said: “The government of Pedro Sánchez is responsible for allowing corridors to kill unarmed civilians in territory controlled by the Polisario Front, and for conducting permitted exercises in airspace controlled by the Polisario Front.” I will bear it,” he demanded. Moreover, the latter suggested that by withdrawing from the cease-fire agreement, it had lost its freedom of movement in the area east of the barm, known as the “liberated zone.”
Polisario also accused the International Committee of the Red Cross and two human rights NGOs, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, of negligence. It argued that these organizations should follow up on “these crimes” rather than marking “an absence of organizations that reassures Morocco that it will continue to commit violations with complete impunity.”
The accusations come in the wake of the separatist movement’s failure to make a breakthrough along the Sahara desert buffer zone. In fact, we lost many officers of armed militias that entered the area to carry out attacks against Moroccan forces.
Polisario claimed that “more than 80 Sahrawi victims died” between 2021 and 2023, without mentioning that they were members of militia groups. In statements to international media, several leaders of the separatist group have already admitted that the movement of Moroccan drones in the area east of the sand wall has become a “nightmare”.
Nevertheless, the Front continues to issue almost daily “military reports” mentioning supposed victories against the Moroccan army in order to attract the attention of the international community.
