Morocco Warns of Terrorist Threat as Foreign Jihadists Seek to Infiltrate Country

Faced with the terrorist threat that looms over it, Morocco is issuing a warning against the infiltration of foreign jihadists.

The Moroccan security services claim that the kingdom is in the sights of certain terrorist organizations that are planning to carry out destabilizing acts there, according to a recent report from the Ministry of the Interior that parliamentarians have taken note of. They also plan to recruit new jihadists in the country, in order to set up terrorist cells there, it is specified.

While it is true that foreign partners agree to recognize that Morocco has developed an effective strategy to fight terrorism, the kingdom remains under a permanent threat. The department of Abdelouafi Laftit points out that terrorist organizations are generally made up of jihadists from different countries. They then infiltrate their country of origin to carry out destabilization plans there, recruit new jihadists and then set up terrorist cells.
