How Morocco plans to rescue its citizens stranded in Iran

The socialist group in the House of Representatives has questioned Nasser Bourita about the fate of Moroccans stranded in Iran. This request follows the closure of Iranian airspace after the recent American and Israeli attacks.

Deputy Moulay Mehdi El Fathemy, a member of the Socialist Union of Popular Forces, has relayed the distress calls of many citizens. Students, workers or simple visitors, these nationals find themselves isolated in a country whose skies are now locked down for security reasons.

Faced with the military escalation, the issue of repatriation is becoming crucial for the families left in the Kingdom. The deputy wants to know if secure evacuation corridors are being negotiated through friendly embassies or international organizations to allow for a quick return.
