    Tindouf ( Arabic: تندوف, romanized : Tindūf) is the main town, and a commune in Tindouf Province, Algeria, close to the Mauritanian, Western Saharan and Moroccan borders.
    en.wikipedia.org
    The town has a large population of Regeibat nomads and is strategically important because of its location near the borders of Morocco, Mauritania, and Western Sahara. Tindouf became the headquarters of the Polisario Front guerrilla organization after the annexation of the former Spanish Sahara (now Western Sahara) by Moroccan troops in 1976.
    Tindouf has a population of 47,965 (2010 estimates), though this figure is of questionable authenticity, given the fact that the exact number is a sensitive issue due to the Sahrawi refugees, who are excluded from the estimate.
