The Directorate General also clarified that the members of this criminal group had assaulted and robbed stores and 25 of them were arrested in Kherrata city and 2 in Beni Ourtilane, adding that during the arrest, some officers sustained injuries from being pelted with rocks and sharp objects.

Algeria is continuing to make strides in line with the new vision announced by President Abdelmadjid Tebboune after he was elected in December 2019, the vision which was launched alongside the establishment of the Algerian Agency on International Cooperation in February 2020.

Ramtane Lemamra's reassignment as Foreign Minister was a turning point in this strategic project, which saw the assignment of 7 special diplomatic envoys, spanning the most vital Algerian territory.

It is worth noting that MAK was labeled a terrorist organization in May 2021, after members were arrested while planning car bombs.
