Mobile Stations to Support Communication in Regions Affected by Fires

On August 29, 2026, the Algerian Ministry of Postal Services and Telecommunications announced the initiation of mobile communication stations in areas impacted by recent fires. This initiative comes as a response to the restoration of safety following the fires, allowing for the re-establishment of communication services in the affected regions. The ministry has coordinated with mobile network operators to ensure that these mobile stations will replace damaged or non-operational communication facilities, thereby guaranteeing the continuity of phone and internet services in these critical areas.

The ministry's statement highlighted that, where necessary, some temporarily deployed mobile stations at beaches will be re-installed to enhance communication network coverage in the affected areas. This measure aims specifically to provide essential communication tools for security services, civil protection teams, and relief workers, ensuring effective coordination for ongoing intervention and assistance efforts.

Furthermore, the Minister of Postal Services and Telecommunications has instructed communication providers to offer free temporary communication and internet services to residents in the affected areas. This initiative is designed to facilitate communication during these challenging circumstances, ensuring that citizens can stay connected while recovery efforts are underway.
