'It Was Annihilation.' Victims of Assad's Chemical Attacks Can Finally Speak Out

December 19, 2024

Algerian security surround protesters during an anti-government demonstration in the capital Algiers on December 11, 2019, ahead of the presidential vote scheduled for December 12. Algeria's contentious presidential election campaign is highlighting the vast gap between youth at the heart of a reformist protest movement and an ageing elite they see as clinging to power. The poll will see five candidates, all linked to ex-president Abdelaziz Bouteflika, compete for the top office. But protesters, whose mass mobilisation forced the ex-strongman to resign from his two-decade tenure in April, have rallied weekly to say sweeping reforms must come ahead of any vote.
