Beni Mellal Online is an Arabic-language digital news publisher serving the Beni Mellal‑Khénifra region of central Morocco. Operating since at least 2015, it delivers a steady stream of hyperlocal reporting that tracks municipal decisions, public services, education, health, and everyday community concerns across provinces including Beni Mellal, Azilal, Khénifra, Khouribga, and Fquih Ben Salah. Its output blends breaking updates with on‑the‑ground reportage and photo/video features, documenting issues such as campus protests, road safety, water supply interruptions, cultural programming, and regional economic initiatives. Coverage spans regional news, society, culture, sports, and short visual pieces under a “Sound & Image” label. The outlet presents itself as offering news “in real time” with bold, credible handling of local affairs. The core audience is residents of the region and the wider diaspora who follow hometown developments. Publishing multiple updates daily and maintaining an extensive month‑by‑month archive, Beni Mellal Online provides a running chronicle of public life in and around the regional capital. It also carries local advertising, reflecting ties with small businesses and institutions. Known locally as “Shabakat Beni Mellal al‑Ikhbariyya” (Beni Mellal News Network), Beni Mellal Online has become a recognizable source for quick regional updates and deeper dispatches from townships and districts across Beni Mellal‑Khénifra.
