Photographs posted on social media show huge walls of flame and billowing clouds of smoke towering over villages in the forested hills of the Kabylie region, east of the capital Algiers.
Meteorologists said the temperature would hit 46 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, and the country is also struggling with severe water shortages. Two people died in Ait-Yenni, one in Yakourene, and another near Azazga, forestry officer Youcef Ould Mohamed told the official APS news agency.Major fires were also reported in Jijel, Bejaia, Bouira, Guelma, Khenchela and Setif.Last month, President Abdelmadjid Tebboune ordered a bill to stiffen punishments for starting a forest fire, with sentences of up to 30 years in prison — and possible life imprisonment, if the fire results in death.
In 2020, nearly 440 square kilometres of forest were destroyed by fire, and several people were arrested on suspicion of arson.
