The Royal Navy and the sea fishing delegation are conducting another rescue operation of a boat experiencing difficulties, with 59 candidates for illegal emigration on board, including 14 women and 4 children, which was reported between Lamsid and Tarouma (province of Boujdour), the same sources said.

The security services of Laâyoune had carried out several operations in recent days to rescue illegal immigration candidates from sub-Saharan Africa and to foil attempts for immigration.

These operations are part of the sustained efforts by the Royal Gendarmerie, the Royal Navy, the National Police, the fisheries delegation and the local authorities to combat illegal immigration and human trafficking.
