Smara (refugee camps), April 30, 2015 (SPS) - Moroccan occupying forces on Thursday morning intervened violently against a group of Saharawi citizens in the occupied city of Smara, leaving some casualties.


Saharawi female citizen Fatma Bouasriya, who are pregnant, and the human rights activist Hamma Mbarek held a sit-in in a place called Al-Kayz, outside the occupied Saharawi city of Smara, before being attacked violently by Moroccan forces of occupation.


Some sources said the situation in occupied Western Sahara is increasingly worsening due to Morocco’s political intransigence and continuous repression perpetuated against the Saharawi civilians. (SPS)
