[Morocco] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. Peaceful protest sit-ins occurred in Casablanca on April 4, 2025, marking the 70th consecutive week of demonstrations by Muslim worshippers and Al Adl Wa Al Ihssane activists following Friday prayers. The low-severity protests focused on condemning Morocco's normalization with Israel and calling for support of Palestinian causes.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event. Given the peaceful nature and localized scope in Casablanca, immediate supply chain disruptions appear minimal. Second-order effects would depend on whether protests expand geographically or escalate in intensity, potentially affecting Morocco's broader economic activities or trade relationships.

Watch points

• Monitor whether protest activity spreads beyond Casablanca to other major Moroccan cities or economic centers
• Track any escalation from peaceful demonstrations to more disruptive forms of civil unrest that could impact local commerce or transportation networks
