ペレヒル島危機は2002年7月18日に発生したスペインとモロッコの間の無血の武力紛争であった​​。事件は、小さな無人島ペレヒル島で行われた。

背景[編集]

Perejil Island (Isla Perejil in Spanish and Leila Laila in Arabic) is a small rocky island about the size of 15 football fields between Spain and Morocco, lying 250メートル (270 yd) from Morocco, and 8キロメートル (5.0 mi) from the Spanish city of Ceuta, which borders Morocco, and 13.5キロメートル (8.4 mi) from mainland Spain. The island itself is deserted, and is occupied by some Moroccan shepherds. Tensions rose on July 11, 2002, when a group of six Moroccan soldiers was deployed to the island and set up a base.[1]

Morocco claimed that it was to monitor illegal immigration and to fight drug traffic which uses the island as a logistic platform,[2][3] a claim which Spain denied, since Morocco had not cooperated with Spain on this issue before[要出典].

Operation Romeo-Sierra[編集]

On the morning of July 18, 2002, conflict broke out when Spain tried to take the island by force, code-named Operation Romeo-Sierra. The attack was carried out by Spanish commandos of Grupo de Operaciones Especiales. The Spanish Navy and Spanish Air Force provided support. The Moroccan Auxiliary Forces members did not offer any resistance. Within a matter of hours, all of the Moroccan Auxiliary Forces members were taken prisoner, and the island was secured. The captured Cadets were transported by helicopter to the headquarters of Guardia Civil in Ceuta, from where they were transported to the Moroccan border. Over the course of the same day, the Spanish commandos on the island were replaced by soldiers of the Spanish Legion.

余波[編集]

The Spanish Legion troops on the island remained there after the operation was complete. The United States mediated the situation, and eventually managed to restore the status quo ante. All Spanish troops were withdrawn, and the island remains unoccupied but claimed by both sides. BBC News interviewed Spanish citizens across Madrid after the conflict, and most people supported this incursion. Opposition politician Gaspar Llamazares of the United Left party said that Spain shouldn't fall into the provocation trap, so it doesn't ruin its image in North Africa.[4]

The two countries continue to dispute sovereignty of the island.[要出典]
