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.

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.
