RABAT (Dispatches) – As part of the U.S.-led African Lion 2025 military exercises, Morocco is hosting the Zionist regime’s Golani Brigade, the same unit held responsible for the paramedics’ massacre in Gaza’s southern city of Rafah, in which 15 paramedics, UN workers, and rescue personnel were killed.
The appearance of Israeli Golani Brigade forces in Morocco has provoked anger among activists on social media.
Images circulated online show the soldiers posing for a group photo at the exercise site, holding both the Zionist regime’s flag and that of the Golani Brigade. The joint drills include participation from over 20 countries, including Arab states.
In a statement, the Palestinian Mujahideen Movement condemned Morocco’s hosting of the Golani Brigade, describing them as “Nazi” and considering the move “indicative of a continued decline in moral and humanitarian standards in the ongoing normalization process with the Zionist entity.”
Early last month, the UN reported that 15 medics and aid workers, including Red Crescent staff, were found dead in a mass grave in Rafah, southern Gaza, some handcuffed and shot, still wearing their uniforms and gloves. Their vehicles and ambulances were discovered crushed and buried in an attempt to cover up the occupation army’s crimes.
Growing public outrage over both the Gaza war and Morocco’s Israeli relations has sparked protests across Rabat, Casablanca, and Tangier, with demonstrators demanding an end to all diplomatic and economic ties with the Zionist regime.
They called on their leaders to end all ties with the regime, established under the U.S.-brokered so-called Abraham Accords, with protesters calling such ties “treason.”
Morocco joined the so-called Abraham Accords in late 2020, formalizing relations with Israel in exchange for U.S. support for its control of Western Sahara.
The North African country has officially called for an immediate and lasting cessation of the war in Gaza, without severing its ties with the Zionist regime.
