Prison Health Crisis: Sahrawi political prisoner Naâma Asfari’s open-ended hunger strike in Kenitra has entered its fifth week, with AARASD warning of serious health deterioration and significant weight loss, and calling for his transfer closer to families and for independent medical care. Rights & Medical Access Demands: Morocco’s National Council says authorities are fully responsible for any further harm, urging unconditional release, an end to solitary confinement, and access for the ICRC, UN special procedures, and human rights groups. International Pressure: Germany’s International League for Human Rights called on Berlin to intervene to save Asfari’s life, citing arbitrary detention, torture, prolonged solitary confinement, and medical neglect. Solidarity Hunger Strikes: The Gdeim Izik group announced a two-day warning hunger strike in solidarity with Asfari, while families protested in Rabat over alleged forced starvation, torture, and denial of fair trial protections. Forensic Care Shortage: A Moroccan parliamentary report says only 25 full-time forensic doctors serve the whole country, leaving judicial districts without specialists and raising concerns about delays and low compensation for autopsies and medical examinations. Health Research Links: Ibn Zohr University signed agreements in Laayoune with Canary Islands universities, including partnerships involving the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy and work in clinical research and medical humanities.
