Enemies changing tactics against Algeria: chief of staff
Algerian chief of staff Said Chengriha says the regional situation, especially that of lack of security and stability, poses a threat to our country.
On the occasion of the New Year, the Algerian Chief of Staff Said Chengriha praised the efforts of the armed forces in protecting Algerian soil.
"The nobility of our mission requires all of us to have constant vigilance and foresight of the increasing challenges facing us internally and externally," the Lieutenant-general said.
It also required finding ways to overcome these challenges, he added, stressing that this could only be achieved through comprehensive combat training.
"Our enemies have become despaired due to their inability to get us face-to-face, so they are trying to change their tactics through using cyberspace, social media platforms, and media disinformation campaigns to demoralize our people. We are well aware of that, and we are working on confronting it," he said.
The Chief of Staff brought to light another challenge facing Algeria, which he said were the terrorist groups, "despite defeating and curbing them."
He said Algier's enemies were waging an undeclared war to impede Algeria's promising national advances and strike the country's stability and national unity.
The commander underlined that the situation the region is undergoing, especially that in terms of instability, constituted another threat to Algeria, highlighting that operational preparedness was the only way to confront it.
He concluded by saying, "We will not tolerate anyone who is tempted to infringe our land's sanctity and our people's capabilities."
