Polisario claims responsibility for attack on Es-Smara

The Polisario separatist front has claimed responsibility for the attack that occurred in the night from Saturday to Sunday in the city of Es-Smara.

The claim came in a statement released this Sunday evening and reproduced by the so-called Sahrawi news agency.

The attack hit four impact zones in three neighborhoods of the city of Es-Smara, namely the districts of ZAP, Hay Essalam and the industrial district. The attack killed one person, a young Moroccan residing in France, and injured three others, including two in serious condition, according to local authorities in the province of Es-Semara.

The Polisario’s statement said that the attack carried out by Sahrawi elements in the “vast sector of Es-Smara” did not cause civilian casualties.
