As the crucial vote on Security Council Resolution 2025 approaches, the Algerian regime is deploying desperate maneuvers in the Tindouf camps. Recent flight data suggests that Algiers is artificially inflating demonstrations in these camps to oppose the upcoming resolution, which is expected to endorse Morocco's Autonomy Plan. These actions come at a time when international support for Morocco is reaching unprecedented levels.

The imminent adoption of this resolution, which promises to be historic by confirming the Moroccan Autonomy Plan as the sole basis for resolving the Western Sahara conflict, is pushing Algeria into last-minute maneuvers. Reports of recent flights to Tindouf reveal an attempt by the regime to orchestrate gatherings in Polisario camps, demonstrating a pitiful effort to thwart the overwhelming diplomatic momentum in favor of Morocco.

The Western Sahara issue is at a critical juncture. Faced with massive international support for the Autonomy Plan, Algeria appears to be resorting to desperate subterfuge just before a major resolution. Monitoring of domestic flights reveals unusual nighttime movements from Algiers and Oran to Tindouf, suggesting that the demonstrations in the camps are orchestrated and directly implicate the Algerian regime. These maneuvers underscore Algiers' desperation in the face of an international community largely supportive of Morocco. While the Moroccan Autonomy Plan enjoys undeniable global support, Algeria's actions appear disorganized and doomed to failure.

Suspicious nighttime flights

Available data confirms the observation, in recent weeks, of multiple flights to Tindouf, primarily in the evening and on a repeated basis. These movements coincide with the upcoming review by the Security Council of the US resolution supporting Moroccan sovereignty over its southern provinces.

Analysts believe the timing of these flights is not coincidental. The objective, they argue, is to create an illusion of "popular mobilization" in the Tindouf camps, while the participants are largely Algerians transported from within Algeria. This situation highlights the desperate and rushed nature of Algeria's maneuvers aimed at countering the now unwavering international support for Morocco.

The Autonomy Plan, the only way to resolve

Faced with these machinations, Morocco continues to consolidate its diplomatic position. The United States, along with the majority of European countries, has reaffirmed its support for the Autonomy Plan, considering it the only realistic and pragmatic solution to the artificial conflict surrounding the Moroccan Sahara. This dynamic increasingly isolates Algeria, which finds itself unable to stem the international momentum in favor of Moroccan sovereignty.

It should be noted that Massad Boulos, special advisor to the US president on Arab and African affairs, reiterated in an interview with Sky News Arabia that the Moroccan Autonomy Plan is the only realistic solution to resolve the Western Sahara dispute. He emphasized the clear and unwavering position of the US administration, stressing that the vote on Resolution 2025 at the Security Council, scheduled for Thursday, is a crucial step. According to Boulos, a lasting resolution to the Western Sahara issue could also facilitate the easing of relations between Morocco and Algeria, marking a turning point for regional diplomacy.
