About
Rabat is the capital of Morocco and has been at the center of recent news due to its hosting of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) final in January. The event was marred by controversy, including a pitch invasion by Senegal fans and accusations of corruption against the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The city has also seen protests and tensions surrounding Morocco's stance on various international issues, including the war in Iran and its treatment of Senegalese refugees. Recently, CAF President Patrice Motsepe visited Rabat to address these concerns and facilitate dialogue between Senegal and Morocco.
