الملخص EN

In this study we shed light on a crucial era from the history of morocco precisely in the region of the Rif (1921-1927).

the riffians led a violent resistance against the Spanish protectorate headed by Mohamed ben Abdelkrim elKhetabi who inflicted several defeats on the Spanish forces.

one of the most important battles is the battle of anwel 1921, however the Spaniards took a savage revenge using chemical weapons.

our study is attempting to prove that the chemical aggression against the Rif of morocco led by Spain and its allies (France, Germany and Britain) conspiring with it whether by being silent or by providing material and human help.

furthermore, this study reveals the reasons lies behind this assault and the types of weapons used to show in the end of this study how big the calamity resulted from this chemical aggression was and subsequently disclose the abuse and the cruelty of the colonialists and deny their claims of civilization, nobleness and humanity.

on the other hand, it aims to unveil the endless pain and the suffering of the people of the Rif due to the aggression so far whether to the Moroccan authorities (Mekhzen) or the international law institutions to rehabilitate the value of the region.
