Utrecht commemoration marks ten years of Morocco’s Hirak protests

A gathering in Utrecht commemorated ten years of Hirak, a protest movement that began in northern Morocco in 2016. The movement was formed after fish seller Mohsin Fikri died after being crushed in a garbage truck on October 28 that year. The meeting revisited Hirak and drew attention to political prisoners and the human rights situation in Morocco.
