AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of State to report to Congress within 90 days, and every year after, on whether the Polisario Front has cooperated with Iranian-affiliated terrorist groups, including Hezbollah. The report must state whether the Polisario Front gave or received armed support, weapons, drones, air-defense systems, or military intelligence. The first report would cover the prior 10 years, and the determination must be unclassified. If the report finds such cooperation, the President would have 30 days to designate the Polisario Front as a foreign terrorist organization and apply terrorism-related sanctions that block property and transactions.
