Hundreds of thousands of people protested in central Algiers on Friday March 15,2019 in the biggest demonstration against President Abdelaziz Bouteflika’s 20-year rule since unrest began last month
Protesters crammed streets and squares in the capital after Friday prayers, many draped in Algeria’s green, white and red flag. Demonstrations also took place in Bejaia, Oran, Batna, Tizi Ouzou and other cities.
Many Algerians say that the president and other veterans of the 1954-62 war of independence against France have neglected them for decades.
