Several political, community and human rights groups from the Saharan provinces have denounced "Polisario" provocation in Tifariti in the Moroccan Sahara and called on Algeria to stop undermining efforts to seeking a final political solution to the Sahara issue.

A large majority of Moroccan Sahrawis in the Tindouf Camps approve the autonomy plan that Morocco proposes to move towards a consensus-based political solution to the 32-year Sahara dispute, Coordinator of the Gjijimat meeting said on Sunday.

Algeria uses the Sahara issue to lure domestic public opinion and try to convince it of the existence of an external threat, claimed two members accompanying the Moroccan delegation to the negotiations in Manhasset.

Minister of the Interior Chakib Benmoussa on Saturday said Morocco continues to extend its hand to the other party (the Polisario separatists) to reach together a solution to the Sahara dispute in the framework of the North African country's proposed autonomy to this territory.

The Seychelles Islands, on Monday, announced it had withdrawn its recognition of the so-called Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR).
