WorldAlgeria cuts diplomatic ties with UAE: What we know

Algeria has severed diplomatic relations with the United Arab Emirates, accusing Abu Dhabi of “provocative and hostile” acts after years of tensions. Algiers ordered the UAE ambassador to comply within 48 hours and closed its airspace to UAE-registered aircraft, while exempting commercial flights to and from Algiers until year-end. The countries also disagree over Israel, Western Sahara and alleged Emirati influence in North Africa and the Sahel.
