Rabat (Morocco)∙ Algerian Coast Guard has reportedly shot and killed two tourists who accidentally crossed the sea border while jet skiing. Morocco – French nationals Bilal Kissi and Abdelali Mercour are dead. This was reported by Moroccan media.
The incident happened last Tuesday. It is reported that the two were shot dead while jet skiing at Saidia Beach in the northeastern tip of Morocco. The media also reported that Smail Snabe, a French-Moroccan citizen who was with them, was arrested. There were four people in the group. Muhammad Kissi, the brother of the murdered Bilal Kissi, was the fourth person in the group.
Mohamed Kissi revealed that the Algerian Coast Guard fired five rounds at the slain Bilal Kissi and Abdelali Mercour. Mohammed Kissi disclosed that the third of the group they caught was also shot once.
Kissy stated that he lost his direction while jet skiing. Running out of fuel during a misguided journey created a crisis. Meanwhile, Mohamed Kissi explained that the group went astray and crossed the Algerian border. Mohamed Kissi, who was lost in the sea, was rescued by the Moroccan Navy.
Moroccan and French nationals were shot dead by the Algerian coast guard amid a dispute between the two countries over Western Sahara. The border between the two countries has been closed since 1994. Algeria had cut all ties with Morocco in 2021.
