Activists in Al Hoceima alongside a number of civilians that came from all over the country took the street yesterday marching for freedom, dignity and social justice. Despite an official ban protesters managed to gather clashing with security forces that fired teargas as a response. Reacting to the event, activists and politicians commented on Al Hoceima’s unrest via Facebook.
A number of «Hirak» activists and citizens are set to participate to a march scheduled a week ago on the 20th of July 2017. Banned by the local authorities, security forces and locals in the city of Al Hoceima are getting ready.
To prevent the occurrence of another scenario similar to the Hirak movement in the Rif region, El Othmani’s government is set to visit a number of regions in order to evaluate the implementation of developmental projects. Béni-Mellal and the three regions of the Sahara will be the first parts to benefit from this operation.
