re: Not GMAR
Reply to @PapaOscar
I am supposed to fly at GMAR next november ifor the occasion of Rallye La Marche Verte organized by the royal aero club of Agadir:
Not GMAR
I removed the GMAR ICAO code from this strip, and created the real GMAR a couple of kilometers north.
re: Any verification on the ICAO ID?
Reply to @mforte: yes, it's problematic, because GMAR is a Moroccan ICAO code, and this airport is not within Morocco's internationally recognized borders (though they occupy and administer the territory).
Any verification on the ICAO ID?
I flagged this airport listed with ICAO ID GMAR as it is a duplicate to this original record. All changes should be made to this one.

TFY is incorrect IATA code. IATA code TFY is for Airport Muhammad Taufiq Kiemas Airport, formerly known as Pekon Serai Airport, serves the city of Krui, South Sumatra, Indonesia with ICAO: WILP. Infor here: https://skyvector.com/airport/WILP.

Reply to @Mohsen: Thanks for the info -- I've made it into a problem report. Because this airport is in a disputed territory, I'd like to confirm the ICAO code before changing it. Do you have a link to a source?

ICAO Code for the airport is GMAR
Others airstrips nearby Mahbas...
You can get the UN airstrip a few kilometers west, along the track to Farsia, Tifariti and Smara. (27.4182267,0 N and 9.1684492 W ). This one is daily checked by UN MINURSO Peace Keepers Officers, used weekly by UN flights landing back or to Tindouf from Laayoune...
One another is close the Moroccan Forces' Brigade Command Post at Farsia (27°14' 41.83'' N and 09° 28' 28.92'' W)...
The whole North-Western area along the Moroccan "Berm" is a military one, over 30 km....
Take care, be safe !
Two Airstrips in Tifariti !
You can get the second airstrip nearby UN Teamsite,one kilometer South...
So UN one is checked everyday by Peace Keeping Officers in order to verify its status.
Moreover the MINURSO is paying in order to repare the strip after rains if necessary...
Tarfaya Airport, souvenir, souvenir...
So, there was only an airstrip unpaved...
But more over Tarfaya was Cap Juby previously, and everybody is searching around "Le Petit Prince" and his fox depicted by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry during 1943.
Antoine was posted in Cap Cuy from end of 1927 to September 1929, and saved by bedouins in Libyan desert by 31 December 1935 after a crash...

— @david at Hassan I Airport, Western Sahara (disputed territory)
Reply to @Abde: There has been movement — the UN Security Council endorsed Morocco's autonomy proposal as the best starting point for moving forward with negotiations — but that's just a milestone towards some kind of future resolution, not a resolution in itself.
