Algerian columnist Mehdi Ghezzar has come under fire for a recent tirade against Morocco on the French channel RMC's Les Grandes Gueules. In a subsequent broadcast on the Algerian public channel AL24 News, Ghezzar made numerous false claims, particularly regarding the role of royal advisor André Azoulay. Ghezzar accused Azoulay of censoring the Moroccan people and preventing them from speaking out against Israel's war crimes.
On the 24th of August 1994, Marrakech and most precisely Hotel Asni witnessed one of the first terrorist attacks in the country. The attack that left two people dead was carried out by three Algerian-French nationals. Morocco back then accused the Algerian intelligence services of planning the deadly shooting, a claim that worsened the diplomatic relations between the two neighboring countries.
The Moroccan delegation participating in a preparatory meeting for the Japan-Africa summit in Tokyo thwarted an Algerian maneuver aimed at imposing the Polisario. This act violated the sovereignty of the host country, which had not invited the separatist movement.
