Morocco and mandatory military service
Moroccoworldnews reports:
The government announced its decision to propose bringing back 12-month compulsory military service in August.
. . .
Government Spokesperson Mustapha El Khalfi said that the military service bill might come into force at the end of 2019.
He explained that the bill will be debated in a Parliament session this week or next.

Morocco first introduced 18-month military service on June 9, 1966, in accordance with Royal Decree 137-66. Morocco reduced the length of service to 12 months in 1999. But in 2006, King Mohammed VI abolished mandatory military service.
