Morocco accused of bombing a school in occupied Western Sahara

MOROCCO has been accused of bombing a school in Western Sahara as part of its escalating bombardment of the Sahrawi people.

Air strikes hit a number of civilian targets earlier this month, with UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres warning that the situation in Western Sahara has “significantly deteriorated.”

Last week the town of Aguenit was attacked for the second time this month, partly destroying the local school while civilian infrastructure including water wells were damaged.
