Apple Maps causes controversy over Spanish territory
The appearance of two islands and two rock formations off the Moroccan coast on Apple’s map has sparked widespread controversy in Spain. The application showed these areas as belonging to Moroccan territory, which the Spanish newspaper considered a technical error. Notably, Jefferia Island and Ras Al-Hisima Rock were among the prominent regions depicted as part of Moroccan land, while information about Badis Rock was not precisely specified. This comes in the context of the ongoing political and legal dispute over sovereignty of the occupied city, as well as Spain’s strategic role in the region—especially with Spanish military forces and reviews on Jefferia Islands, and the strengthening of military presence in areas directly connected to Spanish security interests. This error reflects the political sensitivity of the issue, amid ongoing bilateral discussions between Madrid and Rabat regarding Western Sahara and the occupied cities of Ceuta and Melilla.
