#lamming #lamming #IFNI Between 1953 and 1956, Al-lal el Fassi, leader of the Istiqlal party and intellectual leader of the Moroccan independence movement, began to spread his thesis on what was called “Greater Morocco”, a set of territories beyond those that historically could at some point have been under the authority of the Moroccan sultans. All Spanish squares and territories fell within this dream. Ceuta, Melilla, Ifni, Cape Juby or the Sahara would be in the sights of the Alawite sultans. On March 2, 1956, the French government granted Morocco independence. Mohamed V, Sultan of Morocco, declared all previous treaties extinct, and assumed the vindication theory of “Greater Morocco” that will be the dream of his successors to this day. In the Spanish zone, demonstrations began to put pressure on Franco's government, which on April 7, 1956 signed the so-called Treaties of El Pardo, by which it recognized the independence of Morocco and handed over the Spanish Northern Protectorate, but not the area of Cabo Juby, north of the Sahara, which was considered necessary to protect it, and of course not Ifni, which was not part of the Protectorate. The so-called Moroccan Liberation Army or Yeicht Taharir, supported by the Moroccan Armed Forces, took action against Spanish interests. In November 1957, the War in Ifni broke out. Spain was attacked by the so-called Moroccan Liberation Army supported by the recently independent Morocco. For three months, the Spanish army had to stop the rebel bands that intended to take control of the territory. The number of casualties has never been determined exactly. It is estimated that there were around 300 dead, some 600 wounded and around a hundred missing who were never heard from again. The territory of Ifni was definitively handed over to Morocco on June 30, 1969. From 1957 to 1969, it is estimated that some 20,000 young Spaniards passed through Ifni to do their Military Service.
