Morocco, Algeria Feuding Over Immigrants

The Africans live in the forest and hide out from the Moroccan soldiers that search for them day and night to expel them to stop them trying to enter Spain.  (AP Photo/Alvaro Barrientos) GOULIMINE, Morocco (AP) - African migrants facing deportation on Monday angrily accused Moroccan police of stealing from them, while Algeria rejected Morocco's claims that it was using the immigration drama as a propaganda tool in their decades-long territorial dispute.

The 129 Cameroonians, some cursing and removing their shirts and shoes in protest, were flown to Cameroon's southwestern port city of Douala from a military airport in Goulimine, 400 miles south of Morocco's capital of Rabat.

Their flight was the last of seven that have deported 970 people from Goulimine in recent days. Nearly 1,600 migrants from sub-Saharan Africa were deported last week from the northeast city of Oujda, near the Algerian border.
