AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoPrison Health Emergency: Sahrawi political prisoner Naâma Asfari’s health is described as critical as his open-ended hunger strike enters its second month in Kenitra prison, with reports citing major weight loss, isolation, blocked family contact, and refusal of independent medical checks—sparking urgent calls from the Polisario Front to the ICRC and UN Special Rapporteurs, plus letters urging Pan-African action and independent care. Diplomatic Pressure: Portugal’s Assembly and multiple international solidarity groups (including Spanish and French lawmakers and NGOs) renewed demands for Asfari’s immediate release and independent medical assistance, pointing to UN findings on arbitrary detention and torture. Surveillance & Rights: A new investigation alleges Morocco used Pegasus spyware (2017–2021) to target journalists, Sahrawi activists, and Spanish officials, with records listing more than 200 Spanish numbers as possible surveillance targets. Regional Health-Linked Context: West African leaders backed the African Atlantic Gas Pipeline to Morocco, a major energy corridor that could reshape regional access and infrastructure—relevant as health and humanitarian planning often follows large cross-border projects.
