The Polisario Front cut off the electricity supply to Tindouf camps to prevent Sahrawi populations from watching Morocco’s game against Spain in the Qatar World Cup.
Hespress AR sources reported audio recordings of citizens from the southern provinces, quoting their relatives in the Tindouf camps saying that the “Polisario Front” cut off the electricity supply before the match between Morocco and Spain.
One recording from a woman residing there stated, that the electricity was cut off from the detainees in the Dakhla camp and the Smara camp, before the Asr prayer, so that they would not see the match that qualified Morocco for the quarter-finals.
“These people (the leadership of the Front), are manipulating the poor people who live in the camp,” she said.
The unidentified woman added that the leadership of the Front resorted, through media propaganda, to return the Sahrawis detained in the Tindouf camps, located on Algerian soil, to play a tape as a “reminder of Morocco’s ‘colonization’ of the Sahara”, describing their acts as “ignorant”.
After the victory over the Spanish national team in the penalty shootout, the Algerian official television described “the Spanish national team’s departure from the Qatari capital, Doha, after its bitter elimination in the sixteenth round. The match was difficult for them, as it reached overtime on penalty kicks, to settle things in the end.” without any indication that “La Roja” were eliminated by the Moroccan National Team.
