Wali Amzazi Inspects Agadir’s Souk El Had: Video Surveillance and Patrols to Manage Visitor Flow and Strengthen Security

Saïd Amzazi, wali of the Souss-Massa region and governor of the Agadir Ida-Outanane prefecture, conducted an inspection visit on the morning of Sunday, November 8, 2026, to Agadir’s Souk El Had complex to review the organizational and security measures put in place to welcome traders, users, and Moroccan and foreign visitors.

The visit took place in the presence of representatives of the security services and the relevant local and administrative authorities. It provided an opportunity to review arrangements for managing visitor flows and organizing the indoor spaces, particularly along routes and at points experiencing heavy crowds during peak hours and on weekends.

According to the data presented during the visit, surveillance of the souk’s facilities relies on a camera system covering its various wings, as well as patrols and the presence on the ground of the security services, local authorities, the Auxiliary Forces, and authority officers. This enables the situation to be monitored and action to be taken when necessary.

The measures also include coordination with the souk’s stakeholders and civil society associations to contribute to organization and vigilance, as well as periodic meetings to assess challenges related to managing the complex and consider proposals for improving services.

According to the data presented, the souk is experiencing normal and stable conditions, with a few isolated incidents handled in coordination among the relevant services in order to preserve public order and ensure the continuation of commercial activity under normal conditions.

The visit forms part of ongoing monitoring of reception conditions at this commercial and tourist facility, which attracts visitors from Morocco and abroad, as well as efforts to improve its services and enhance comfort and security within the complex.
