Dozens of Pro-Palestinian demonstrators protested outside Morocco’s parliament on Friday against the Kingdom’s Normalisation of ties with Israel after the Jewish State recalled its top envoy from Rabat amid a probe.

Around 100 people chanted slogans against the rapprochement between Morocco and Israel, criticising its Ambassador David Govrin and Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita.

It was reported by the Israeli Public Broadcaster Kan on Monday that a Foreign Ministry delegation had been dispatched to Rabat, following sexual abuse allegations against envoy Govrin.

An Israeli diplomat confirmed that Govrin has been recalled while an investigation is ongoing without details of the nature of the probe.

According to Israeli media, the envoy is facing allegations of exploiting Moroccan women, sexual harassment and indecent exposure.

“Today, we are in front of the parliament to protest against the hideous acts” allegedly committed by Govrin, said Amine Abdelhamid, a pro-Palestinian activist against normalisation between Morocco and Israel.

“Morocco’s dignity is not for sale, the normalisation must end,” 

Protesters burned an Israeli flag at the end of the demonstration.

Recall that Rabat had cut relations with Israel in 2000 following the outbreak of the Second Palestinian intifada, but in 2020 Morocco followed the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain in formalising ties with Israel.

The US-backed deal saw Washington recognise Moroccan sovereignty over the disputed Western Sahara territory.

Govrin, has previously served as Israel’s envoy to Cairo before being appointed Ambassador to Rabat last year.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry has  not commented on the probe when contacted by Newsmen this week.

There are also claims of embezzlement and the apparent disappearance of a gift from the Moroccan monarch to celebrate Israel’s Independence Day.

According to an Israeli Diplomat Govrin is currently in Israel and is involved in the ongoing investigation.

But Moroccan Authorities are still silent on the matter.
