Macron Offers France's Support to Algeria in Fighting Wildfires
French President Emmanuel Macron expressed on Monday his country's support for Algeria in confronting the wildfires that swept through large areas in recent days, leaving at least 12 people dead. This comes at a time when Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune announced his intention to reinstate the death penalty for arsonists. Despite tensions that have marred relations between the two countries in recent years, Paris renewed its readiness to offer assistance, while fears grow over worsening wildfires in Algeria amid recurring droughts and climate change.
