New road tragedy in Algeria: seven dead and 11 injured in a collision in In Guezzam
Road tragedies follow one another at dizzying speed in Algeria. Algerians are now dying in large numbers on roads that have become too dangerous.
Less than a week after the death of 11 people in a bus accident on Tuesday October 29 in Ouargla, a collision between two utility vehicles left seven dead and 19 injured early Sunday evening in In Guezzam in the deep south of Algeria. The tragedy occurred on the RN1 between In Guezzam and Tamanrasset shortly after 7:00 p.m. The collision was followed by a fire.
Violent and deadly accidents have become frequent on Algerian roads in recent years. The human factor is the main responsible for these tragedies which bereave Algerian families every day.
On the roads, motorists often drive dangerously, not respecting the Highway Code: dangerous overtaking, speeding, driving without headlights on at night, dangerous maneuvers, etc.
Oil: the decision of Algeria and 7 other OPEC+ countries to support prices
Eight countries of the OPEC+ group which brings together the oil cartel and Russia, decided on Sunday to extend until the end of December 2024 their “ additional voluntary production reductions » of 2.2 million barrels per day.
These countries are Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Kazakhstan and Oman. The decision aims to support oil prices which are around $70 per barrel.
In an interview with El Watan, Nordine Ait Laoussine, former Algerian Minister of Energy, judged the situation of the oil market “ confused, uncertain and particularly volatile ».
According to him, the “ Oil demand prospects are systematically revised downwards with the stagnation of oil consumption in OECD countries and the collapse of Chinese imports. »
Travel to Algeria: end of the exceptional measure for dual nationals
Algerian dual nationals will no longer be able to travel to Algeria with a simple ID card or an expired Algerian passport, accompanied by a valid foreign passport.
The decision taken last May to authorize them to come to Algeria without an Algerian passport expired on October 31. It was not renewed, according to the specialized site VVA. From now on, they must present a valid Algerian passport or visa to enter Algeria.
Spain bereaved by floods: King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia driven out by the population
Spain continues to count its deaths after the spectacular floods which hit the Valencia region last Tuesday, leaving more than 200 dead. The images of the waves of water rushing down the streets of the Mediterranean city are impressive.
King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia had to suspend their visit to the flood sites on Sunday, after being attacked by demonstrators shouting “ d’assassins » and by throwing mud. The victims are unhappy with the slowness of relief after the disaster which struck this city.
Popular discontent did not spare the head of government, Pedro Sánchez, and the conservative president of the Valencia region, Carlos Mazón, who also cut short their visit to the scene of the tragedy, driven out by the population.
