In a concerted effort to curb irregular migration, border surveillance units in the cities of Nador, M’diq, and Fnideq, operated by the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) of Morocco, conducted extensive interception and removal operations during the night from Sunday to Monday.

Collaborating with local authorities and law enforcement, these units played a crucial role in maintaining border security and addressing the ongoing challenges associated with irregular migration.

The city of Nador witnessed the interception of 175 candidates for irregular migration hailing from various nationalities, including Algerian, Moroccan, Tunisian, and Yemeni, as reported by a press release from the General Staff of the Royal Armed Forces.

Notably, the FAR units actively participated in joint sanitation operations in the aforementioned cities, where a total of 935 individuals, gearing up to embark on irregular migration from Morocco to Spain, were intercepted.
