ASVDH has learned of a new mass grave likely containing Western Saharans was discovered in the area of Boucraâ, east of the city of El Aaiun, Western Sahara, according to corroborating sources.

Fosboucraa company workers found seven human skull when they were digging in the phosphate mine about 12 km north-east of the urban community of Boucraâ under the supervision of experts from the Geological Survey.

The same sources indicate that these skulls could belong to Sahrawi nomads who have been killed under torture by the Moroccan Army or the Royal Gendarmerie.
