Algerian President Links Fires to Criminal Acts
Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune confirmed that the recent wildfires that swept through several regions of the country may have been caused by criminal acts. He pointed out that wind speeds reaching up to 100 kilometers per hour could hinder firefighting efforts, but he expressed his belief that there is intentional misconduct behind the fires. Authorities have conducted field investigations to gather evidence and determine responsibilities. More than 90% of the fires have been extinguished, although some are still ongoing in Jijel Province, amidst evacuation efforts and solidarity supplies for the affected areas. The wave of fires has resulted in 12 fatalities, according to the Ministry of Interior. The government is also holding meetings to analyze the causes of the fires and implement future measures to prevent their recurrence.
