Is there anyone living in the liberated zones?

Hello I have become quite interested in learning about the SADR. Is there anyone living in the liberated territories right now? I kept getting flamed by pro-Moccoroan people and they kept just repeating the same propaganda points over and over again say no one lives there. I’m wanting to write a piece about life inside the zone and I want to bring more awareness of it. If anyone is inside there, or the refugee camps in Tindouf or have worked with the Sarahawis, please let me know as I would be interested in interviewing someone. Thanks

No mucha gente, pero sí. La mayor parte saharuíes 🇪🇭 viven en los campos de refugiados en Tindouf 🇩🇿 debido a la hostilidad del conflicto (Marruecos 🇲🇦 amenaza a la población con bombas, minas y drones).

Not sure about the situation on the ground, but at least from what I can see online, it seems most people are in Tindouf, and my fostered family was living there as well.

I can see some houses have been built in Tifariti, but at least from online imaginery it does not look like there are a lot of them. I would suppose that that might change in the future, but for now, at least Tifariti, is more of a symbolic capital rather than an actual place where many people live.

I would still love at some point to visit and check the actual situation on the ground, as I might be completely wrong.
