Western Sahara Newspapers Online

Western Sahara has one of the world's most politically complex media landscapes, serving a disputed territory and population of approximately 600,000 — with the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) government-in-exile operating from the Tindouf refugee camps in Algeria, while Morocco controls most of the physical territory. This unique situation means Western Sahara has two parallel media ecosystems: Moroccan-aligned media covering the territory, and SADR exile media serving the Sahrawi diaspora and refugee camps.

The official SADR news agency is SPS (Sahara Press Service), publishing in Arabic, Spanish and English. RASD TV is the SADR state broadcaster. Sahara Media and WSRW provide independent coverage. The Sahrawi national football team competes through CONIFA — the federation for non-FIFA recognised teams.
