L'ECONOMISTE:
Always "Empty" Administration?: "Against all odds, the continuous scheduling in public administration, introduced by decree in July 2005, creates happiness. While many thought this measure was a failure, here is a study, commissioned by the Ministry of Reform of Administration and Civil Service and conducted by the firm SIS-Consultants, brings out the opposite. According to the synthesis report, two thirds of the respondents have a favorable opinion of this system which corresponds to their schedule."

Strong intervention followed by arrests in the ranks of the leaders of the Hirak which resulted in clashes in the streets of Al Hoceima. Appraisal: Several wounded in the ranks of protestors and forces of order, according to eyewitnesses and widely distributed images on social networks."

According to the Scoop site quoting a source from the anti-cybercrime section of the Directorate General of National Security of Algeria (DGSN), the authors of this campaign would be Moroccan and would have acted since the Kingdom by creating accounts, pages, and groups with false names in order to incite Algerians to commit the worst violence against migrants."
