In this message, HM the King expresses, in this painful circumstance, to Mohamed Salah Tamek and through him to his family and the Ait Oussa tribe, his heartfelt condolences and sincere compassion following this ordeal, Praying God to give the family patience and comfort.

 HM the King said that, with the death of late Ahmed Salem Ould Mohamed Tamek, the resistance and liberation army in the southern provinces have lost a key figure that had fought for recovering the country's independence and preserving its territorial unity, and which was continuously mobilized to defend the glorious Alawite throne and Morocco's sacred values.
