‘A blatant affront’: Israeli embassy upgrade angers pro-Palestine voices in Morocco

Morocco and Israel agreed to upgrade their diplomatic missions to embassies and appoint ambassadors following a meeting on September 16, a move that has angered pro-Palestine voices in Morocco. While the Moroccan government frames the upgrade as beneficial for regional peace and potentially aiding Palestinians, some political parties and movements, like the Justice and Development Party and Al Adl Wal Ihsane, have condemned it as an affront to public sentiment and a provocation against the popular will.
