Morocco's Royal Armed Forces consider Rafale F4 purchase
After an unsuccessful bid in the fall of 2007, the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) are once again considering the acquisition of Rafale jets from France. «In Morocco, Dassault Aviation's Rafale is making a strong comeback!» reported the French outlet Avions Légendaires. A source in Morocco told Yabiladi that FAR is eyeing a purchase of six Rafale F4 aircraft, along with missiles and other equipment. This renewed interest comes amid strengthened ties between Rabat and Paris, particularly following President Emmanuel Macron's recognition of Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara on July 30, 2024. During Macron's visit to Morocco in October 2024, Minister Delegate for National Defense Administration Abdellatif Loudiyi met with his French counterpart, Sébastien Lecornu. That meeting paved the way for a bilateral agreement in July 2025, following a visit to Rabat by Emmanuel Chiva, France's Director General of Armament, to establish a joint armament committee.

The Hassan II Foundation for Moroccans Living Abroad condemns recent racist attacks in Spain
The Hassan II Foundation for Moroccans Living Abroad has sharply condemned what it describes as the «unworthy actions of Spain», denouncing a «disastrous» surge in racist incidents that «have no place in a democratic society». In a statement issued Tuesday, August 12, the foundation expressed its «deepest concern» over the growing normalization of such acts and reaffirmed its commitment to «protect and defend the rights and interests» of Moroccans abroad. In recent weeks, Spain has seen an increasingly tense identity debate, fueled by local measures and far-right rhetoric hostile to migration. The foundation noted that, «in less than a month, the Moroccan community in Spain has been subjected to serious incidents: the burning of a mosque in Piera, a 'hunt for Moors' in Torre Pacheco, hate speech on social media, the suspension of the Arabic language and cultural heritage program by the autonomous community of Madrid and other municipalities, and restrictions on Muslim worship in Jumilla». It recalled that as early as 2010, during an academic meeting in Seville, it had warned about «the rise of xenophobic and Islamophobic discourse on social networks». At that time, this rhetoric was considered an import from abroad, but «it is now, unfortunately, homegrown and reflects a growing hostility toward Moroccans and foreigners», the statement said. Still, the foundation acknowledged «the genuine commitment of the Spanish people to the values of freedom, equality, dignity, respect, and coexistence», and praised «the quality of the welcome Spain offers to foreigners». It paid tribute to the authorities, political parties, civil society organizations, and media outlets that have reacted firmly and with dignity to these incidents. In closing, the foundation commended «the courage, maturity, and civility» of Moroccans who have been targeted, offering them «full solidarity» along with continued «support and assistance in defending their rights and interests».

Activist Sion Assidon in Coma After Serious Head Injury in Mohammedia
Marrakech – Left-wing activist and anti-normalization figure Sion Assidon remains in a coma at a clinic in Mohammedia following a serious head and face injury. The 77-year-old president of the Moroccan branch of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement was found unconscious at his home on Monday. According to sources close to Assidon, he reportedly fell from a staircase or ladder while trimming trees at his residence on Saturday. After the incident, he managed to reach his living room and sit on a couch, but remained unconscious until Monday, when a concerned colleague discovered him after he missed a meeting. Despite this plausible explanation, the Mohammedia prosecutor's office immediately ordered an investigation. Police visited the scene, seized Assidon's phone and computer, and stationed an officer outside his home. According to converging reports, Assidon underwent urgent surgery on Monday night after he was rushed to the hospital. His personal physician recommended emergency head surgery, which was successfully performed, but the anti-Zionist activist remains comatose. Meanwhile, several left-wing activists gathered outside the clinic to inquire about his health condition. A strong police presence from various units has been observed around the facility. The Moroccan Observatory Against Normalization expressed 'deep concern' about Assidon's hospitalization, stating in a communiqué that he was transferred to the hospital 'in a state of unconsciousness.' Ahmed Ouihmane, president of the Observatory, wrote on his personal Facebook account that Assidon underwent 'a delicate brain operation.' He added that, 'according to information circulating in his entourage and among opponents of normalization, his body shows suspicious signs that require a more thorough medical and security investigation to determine the circumstances of what really happened.' Born in 1948 in Casablanca to a Jewish family, Sion Assidon is a historical figure in Moroccan activism. A prominent far-left figure, he spent twelve years in prison between 1972 and 1984 for undermining state security. In 1996, he co-founded the anti-corruption association Transparency Morocco, and in 2010, launched the Moroccan branch of BDS. The Observatory's statement expressed 'full solidarity' with Assidon and his family, wishing him a 'speedy recovery' so he could 'resume his commitment.' It also underlined Assidon's dedication to fighting against genocide, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid, as well as his sacrifices, including years of imprisonment for defending democracy.
