Algeria Announces Three Days of Mourning After Fires Cause 12 Deaths

Algeria has announced a three-day national mourning period following the death of 12 people and injuries to dozens in the wildfires that have swept through several northeastern states, especially Bejaia, Jijel, and Skikda. Ongoing efforts are in place for firefighting and evacuations. High temperatures and mountainous terrain are accelerating the spread of the flames, with approximately 90 out of 159 fires having been extinguished so far. Helicopters and aircraft are being used in firefighting efforts, alongside the activation of additional support plans. These fires are among the most severe in the country and have reignited discussions about the preparedness of the prevention and response systems for recurring wildfires.
