Algerian Civil Protection manages major fires in Skikda and Boumerdes
The Algerian Civil Protection teams were able to extinguish 72 fires out of 80 that erupted across several states over the past 24 hours, while efforts to contain 8 other fires are ongoing in the states of Skikda, Boumerdes, Souk Ahras, and El Taref. The states of Skikda and Boumerdes were hit by devastating fires, with Skikda, particularly in the commune of Qenoua, suffering significant damage and a threat to residences. This prompted a precautionary evacuation of several families. Utilizing 37 fire trucks and firefighting aircraft—including a BE200 and two AT802 planes—the teams managed to contain these fires. Additionally, a large fire in the Nahrasiya commune of Boumerdes was brought under control.
