Thousands of Moroccans took to the streets of Rabat today in a massive march in solidarity with the Palestinian people. Despite heavy rain pouring over the capital, demonstrators from across the country raised slogans supporting Palestinian resistance and denouncing international complicity with Israel.
Waving Palestinian flags and holding portraits of iconic resistance figures—many of them wearing keffiyehs—the crowd also chanted calls for an end to official normalization with the Israeli state.
The National Working Group for Palestine, which organized the march, issued a statement afterward declaring that they «strongly and angrily demand the end to normalization».
The statement went on to warn that normalization poses «a direct threat to the security, social peace, present, and future of Morocco as a state and as a people, given the extent and depth of Israeli penetration into all vital and strategic sectors». Ending normalization, it stressed, is «a national duty for all Moroccans—citizens and officials alike—to protect the country from criminal and destructive schemes, and not just an act of solidarity with the Palestinian people».
The group also announced a «national popular march» to be held next Sunday, April 20, in the northern city of Ksar Sghir, outside the Tangier Med Port. The demonstration will protest the passage of ships allegedly carrying military equipment destined for the Israeli military, while the Moroccan government «remains silent and refuses to clarify its official position despite mounting pressure from popular movements».
