Moroccan intelligence and security agencies successfully foiled a highly dangerous terrorist plot that threatened the country’s stability, directly orchestrated and incited by a prominent leader of ISIS in the Sahel region of Africa.
The security operations, carried out over the past few days, resulted in the arrest of 12 extremists in various Moroccan cities, including Laâyoune, Casablanca, Fes, Taounate, Tangier, Azmour, Jerada, Oulad Teima, and Tamenssa.
These terrorist cells were planning to execute a series of attacks aimed at destabilizing the country’s security. Authorities seized weapons and explosive materials in the possession of the suspects. Security sources confirmed that this network had direct connections with international terrorist groups and that the operations were conducted in precise coordination between various Moroccan security agencies.
This operation is part of Morocco’s ongoing efforts to combat terrorism and protect national security. In light of the growing threats in the region, experts affirm that the vigilance of Moroccan security forces plays a crucial role in thwarting terrorist plots before they can be carried out.
Furthermore, the success of this security operation reflects Morocco’s ability to address complex security challenges through continuous cooperation and coordination between various security agencies and local authorities. Morocco continues its efforts both domestically and internationally to combat terrorism and extremism, as the Sahel region witnesses a rise in terrorist activities.
