Moroccan Health Ministry Boycotts Health Conference Due to Zionist Participation

Local Editor

Moroccan "Al Tajdid" newspaper reported that Moroccan Health Ministry prevented its employees from taking part in the upcoming conference scheduled for Monday in the Moroccan capital Rabat, as there will be "Israeli" participants.

The conference entitled "Bacteria Transmission through water and Contagious Diseases" is an opportunity for medical and scientific research in North Africa and the Middle East.

According to sources, Yasmina Badou, the Moroccan Health Minister called upon all employees of the ministry as well as employees of the National Health Institute to boycott the conference due to presence of Zionist participants, which means that the Health ministry will not organize the event despite the fact that more than 20 countries are to participate so far.

Sources said that the Health Ministry has been subjected to pressure from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as well as from foreign parties, but again to no avail.
