Occupied Aaiun ,04 July 2017 (SPS) - The Moroccan occupation authorities on Monday prevented two Spanish observers from visiting the occupied city of Aaiun (Laura Moreno Torricrosa and Andrea Síez de Eigliath), who were in the process of organizing several meetings with the Sahrawi legal, political and media activists and the assessment of  human rights situation in the territory.
The Moroccan occupation authorities prevented the two observers from  entering in the airport of the occupied city of Aaiun, forcing them to return on the same plane to Casablanca airport without giving any justification for this illegal act.
It should be noted that the Moroccan authorities deliberately close the territory of Western Sahara to foreign delegations and missions, preventing them from monitoring the situation in the occupied territory of Western Sahara, imposing a military and media siege the territory.SPS.
