AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Hunger Strike Crisis: Sahrawi political prisoner Naâma Asfari’s health is worsening in Morocco’s Kenitra prison as he continues an open-ended hunger strike since June 8, with French and German human rights groups and Sahrawi bodies calling for urgent international intervention and implementation of UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention Opinion 23/2023. Diplomatic Pressure: French MP Jean-Paul Lecoq urged France’s prime minister to raise the case of Gdeim Izik detainees, including Asfari, during a Morocco visit, while South Africa received the Sahrawi foreign minister for talks on strengthening support for self-determination. Legal and Prison Accountability: Families of Gdeim Izik prisoners protested in Rabat, accusing prison authorities of torture, medical neglect, and forced starvation, and demanding access for the ICRC and UN mechanisms. U.S. Counterterrorism Move: Two more U.S. lawmakers backed a bill to require the U.S. to review designating Polisario as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, adding to growing congressional support. Western Sahara on Screen: NGOs and solidarity groups renewed calls to boycott Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” over filming in occupied Dakhla, arguing it normalizes Morocco’s occupation. International Solidarity: Italy’s Mantua province reaffirmed support for the Sahrawi cause and discussed hosting Sahrawi children, while a new Barbados committee was launched to boost awareness and solidarity. Regional Governance Detail: A Moroccan parliamentary report flagged a severe shortage of forensic doctors nationwide, raising concerns about justice capacity.
