2017 Marhaba Operation Kicks off on Monday

Under the presidency of HM King Mohammed VI, the operation of receiving Moroccan expatriates dubbed "Marhaba" will start on Monday and run until Sept. 15, 2017, the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity said.

   The Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity, which contributes in the implementation and the organization of this operation, has set up 17 rest areas to respond to the intensity of maritime and air traffic regularly recorded on this occasion, the Foundation pointed out in a statement.

   These rest areas are: Tangier Mediterranean, Taourirte, Tazaghine and Jabha, as well as the reception sites of the ports of Tangier-Med, Nador and Al Hoceima, access points of Bab Sebta and Bab Melila and the airports of Casablanca Mohammed V, Oujda Angad, Agadir Al Massira and Fez Saiss.

   Abroad, the Foundation will provide assistance to members of the Moroccan Community traveling via the European ports of Almeria, Algeciras, Sete and Genoa, as well as the ports of Motril (Spain), Tanger-ville and the airport of Marrakech.

   Guides written in 7 languages and offering information to travellers could be provided by consulates, banking agencies in Europe and RAM agencies.

   Over 1,000 social workers, physicians, paramedics and volunteers will be at the service of Moroccan expats.

   This action has been reinforced by launching a mobile app and setting up a dedicated website: www.marhaba.fm5.ma.
