As the 2030 World Cup approaches, a fierce controversy is shaking Morocco. According to The Athletic, a large-scale campaign targeting stray dogs is reportedly underway in several host cities, officially to "clean up" public spaces ahead of the tournament. Animal rights organizations are denouncing brutal methods and raising alarms about the scale of these operations.

Reports mention culling by shooting, poisoning, and other practices considered inhumane. NGOs warn that as many as three million animals could be affected if these actions continue.

With mounting international pressure, FIFA has reportedly been called to address the issue. The stakes now go far beyond mere sporting organization and touch on the country's image on the global stage.
