Saguia el-Hamra or Sakia el Hamra (Spanish: Saguía el Hamra [saˈɣia el ˈxamɾa] , Arabic: الساقية الحمراء, romanized: al-Sāqiyah al-Ḥamrāʾ, lit. 'Red Canal') is the northern geographic region of Western Sahara. It was, with Río de Oro, one of the two territories that formed the Spanish province of Spanish Sahara after 1969. Its name comes from a waterway that goes through the capital. The wadi is inhabited by the Oulad Tidrarin Sahrawi tribe.
