> Algeria has severed diplomatic relations with the United Arab Emirates and will close its airspace to the UAE from Friday, while commercial flights to and from Algiers can continue through the end of 2026. Algiers cited “provocative and hostile acts” and accused Abu Dhabi of destabilizing Libya, Sudan and Mali. The UAE said it hoped the move would be temporary.
