On Monday, Mauritanian army units intercepted two military vehicles and a truck belonging to the Polisario near the border with Morocco. This interception comes amid heightened security measures due to suspicious movements in sensitive areas.

Mauritania has shifted its approach to border security, now refusing the entry of Polisario vehicles. The forces are conducting verification procedures to prevent unauthorized activities that could threaten regional stability.

This development aligns with Mauritania's long-term security policy to strengthen sovereignty over its territory, especially along borders prone to smuggling and irregular movements. The border with Algeria remains a significant tension point due to Polisario militia activities.
