Morocco's Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM) has won the largest bloc of seats in the country's parliamentary election, according to final results announced by the Interior Ministry on Friday.
The party secured 97 of the 395 seats in the House of Representatives, placing it ahead of its rivals but short of the absolute majority needed to govern alone.
PAM, known by its French acronym, was founded by an adviser close to King Mohammed VI, and its strong showing signals a notable shift in Morocco's political landscape.
With no single party holding a majority, PAM will now need to negotiate with other parties to build a governing coalition, a process that is expected to shape the composition and direction of Morocco's next government.
