Nador arrests over Beni Anzar unrest
The Basic Court of Nador handed down sentences ranging from 4 to 6 months of imprisonment, along with a fine of 500 dirhams, to three young men prosecuted over events near the Beni Nsar border crossing with Melilla. These events involved clashes between migrants and security forces and resulted in property damage and stone-throwing. The Moroccan Association for Human Rights called for the release of minors and those prosecuted for attempts to cross the border, emphasizing that the sentences come after escalating incidents and widespread protests around the border area. According to reports, security forces closed the crossing, and the clashes led to the return of 130 people to Morocco, amid an escalation by Spanish authorities who urged citizens to avoid the area.
