Alakhbar published an article about the Polisario Front and its mercenaries in Libya. According to the article, the Polisario is facing a major crisis after the downfall of Gaddafi, its ally and patron, and it may lose more friends after reports surfaced accusing it of supplying Gaddafi with mercenary fighters in his battle against the rebels.

Also, major US and international media outlets write about the death of Moroccan Princess Royal Lalla Aisha, aunt of King Mohammed VI.
