This year’s festival edition, which will continue until June 29, comes amid the Israel Occupation Forces’ constant massacres targeting citizens in Gaza.
Many Moroccans have created a campaign urging citizens to boycott the event, feeling it inappropriate to be festive amid the devastating situation in Gaza. Many social media pages have been sharing photos from the festival, reflecting empty spaces – suggesting that a notable portion of the citizenry engaged in the boycott campaign.
