Morocco has opened an investigation following the death of two Moroccans residing in France killed by Algerian coast guards near Saïdia, near the Algerian border.

Alleged gunfire from Algerian coast guards could have tragically cost the lives of two French citizens of Moroccan origin who came to spend their vacation in Morocco, while a third individual would be detained in Algeria.

Several suspects were arrested earlier this week in Berrechid, Tangier and Saidia as part of the investigation conducted by the BNPJ and DGST elements into the murder of the policeman from Errahma, whose body was found burned .

For the 1st edition of "Happy Walls" dedicated to street art, several Moroccan and international artists were invited to create mural frescoes on the walls of the medina of the seaside resort of Saïdia Resorts.

A Frenchman under an international arrest warrant issued by the French authorities was arrested by the police in Saidia, announces the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN).

A former president of the Saïdia commune has treated himself to a luxurious villa that he rents for 200 DH per month. This situation, which has prevailed for about ten years, has never been the subject of a review of the rental value.

Saïdia, the preferred destination of Moroccans living abroad (MRE) and foreign tourists for the summer holidays, is impacted by the health crisis related to Covid-19. Result: the big events, the festivals... have given way to boredom.

26 beaches and a marina in the city of Saïdia have been awarded the "Blue Flag" label for the year 2020. They offer the safety that vacationers need to relax after more than three months of health confinement, according to the Mohammed VI Foundation for Environmental Protection.

Saïdia , one of the favorite destinations for tourists, is preparing to welcome vacationers. The municipality and the other stakeholders are mobilizing teams as part of these preparations.

Rescue services were called on Monday afternoon to assist three young people swept away by the waves on the beach of Saidia . Only two of them were able to be brought back to shore.

Closed for a few months due to the coronavirus, the seaside resorts of Saïdia and Marchica are preparing to reopen. Despite all the goodwill of the competent authorities to offer attractive offers, these sites could lose, as soon as they resume, the clientele of Moroccans living abroad (MRE).

The first group of 300 Moroccans repatriated from Algeria and placed in isolation has left the Saïdia tourist establishments.
