Moroccans rally in Rabat in support of Palestine and to protest the starvation of Gazans
In a powerful display of solidarity, Rabat, the capital of Morocco, became the epicenter of a massive national march organized by the «Moroccan Front for Supporting Palestine and Against Normalization». Thousands turned out to voice their support for the Palestinian people in Gaza and to denounce the severe policies of starvation and siege imposed by the Zionist occupation. This demonstration was a direct response to the Palestinian resistance's call for a global movement to address the dire situation faced by the besieged residents of the Gaza Strip, who suffer under a brutal collective starvation policy. From the early morning hours, thousands of Moroccans gathered in Rabat, with significant representation from political party leaders, political organizations, human rights groups, and trade union representatives. The Justice and Charity Group. Al Adl wal Ihsane, was notably prominent in the march. The «Moroccan Front for Supporting Palestine and Against Normalization» emphasized in a statement that this national march is driven by «our humanitarian duty and historical responsibility as a people and activists to confront the crime of starvation and genocide». The march also seeks to «participate in the global movement on Sunday against starvation in Gaza» and to «condemn the genocide committed by the Zionist occupation against the Palestinian people, amid the silence and complicity of the international community». The statement further highlighted that «the systematic starvation inflicted by the occupation's machinery on more than one and a half million civilians in Gaza, particularly in its northern regions, through the destruction of infrastructure, food storage, and the prevention of aid, is a genocidal weapon aimed at crushing the will to resist and forcing surrender upon a people committed to resistance until liberation». The front vehemently condemned «the crime of international silence and Arab inaction in stopping this heinous crime», urging the Moroccan people to continue their mobilization and struggle in support of Palestine and its courageous resistance.

Without Al Adl wal Ihsane, Rabat holds solidarity march for Iran
As expected, Rabat hosted a solidarity march in support of Iran on Sunday, June 22. Demonstrators chanted, «From Rabat to Tehran, resistance will not be humiliated», just hours after U.S. airstrikes, ordered that same day by President Donald Trump, targeted Iranian nuclear facilities. Notable participants included Salafist Hassan Kettani and PJD general secretariat member Mohamed El Hilali. The PPS was represented by political bureau member Jamal Benchekroun, who condemned «Israeli aggression against the Iranian people». Human rights advocate Mohamed Al-Zahari, secretary-general of the North Africa region of the International Alliance for the Defense of Rights and Freedoms, also joined the protest to express solidarity with Tehran. However, Al Adl wal Ihsane did not participate, and their absence reduced the overall turnout. The group's news site, AWI, provided no coverage, a reflection of deep disagreements with the march organizers, who are united under the National Action Group for Palestine. Two days earlier, after Friday prayers, Jama'a organized separate solidarity marches in support of Iran. Meanwhile, Al Adl wal Ihsane's partner in opposing normalization with Israel, the Front for the Support of Palestine and Against Normalization, also boycotted the Rabat march, despite having already condemned Israeli attacks against Iran.
