The leader of the Liberal Policario Front, Brahim Khali, announced on Saturday that the group would no longer be bound by a decades-long agreement in the region, the group’s news agency Sahara Press Service reported on Saturday.
Morocco, which says it will continue to support the ceasefire, announced last week that it would resume military operations at the El Gourgart crossing, a buffer zone between the state of Morocco and the self-proclaimed Arab Democratic Republic.
In launching the operation, Morocco “severely undermined not only the ceasefire and related military agreements, but any chance of a peaceful and lasting solution to the question of the colonialisation of the Western Sahara,” Galle said in a letter to the UN.
Western Sahara is a long-disputed territory in southwestern Morocco that is largely controlled by the Moroccan government, which occupies 75% of the land, according to the CIA World Truth Book. After the overthrow of Spanish rule in 1976, Morocco and the Policario Front fought in the region, and in 1979 Mauritania withdrew its demand for control. After negotiating an agreement in 1991, the UN Has recognized the region as a “non-sovereign territory”.
“Morocco is committed to defending the ceasefire, and the Royal Armed Forces’ action is aimed precisely at coordinating the ceasefire by violating the military agreement and preventing the recurrence of such serious and permissible acts that threaten regional security and stability,” the ministry said.
However, the UN has denied that their forces were persecuted. Since the protests began on October 21, Minuerzo has been quietly engaged in demonstrations in C குrdoba, backed by the Policario Front and the Moroccan military, with the aim of easing tensions, “said UN spokesman Nick Burnback.
The Polisario Front in Western Sahara, carried out attacks against the Royal Moroccan Army, “lives and distort the equipment loses its military plans,” said Saturday that the Sahara Press Service. The Moroccan government has not yet commented on the allegations.
The UN Minorzo, which maintains peacekeeping operations in Western Sahara, said it had made efforts to persuade all parties to avoid hostility and defend the ceasefire, but it had not succeeded.
“The Secretary-General is determined to do all he can to avert the collapse of the ceasefire that has been in place since September 6, 1991, and he is determined to do everything possible to remove all obstacles to the resumption of the political process,” said Stephen Dujarric, a spokesman for the UN Secretary-General.
Over the years, more than 100,000 people have been displaced from the region by the conflict, according to the Global Security Report.
