Algeria drafts wartime mobilization bill amid regional tensions

  • Algeria’s government approved a draft law earlier in May 2025 to establish a framework for full-scale wartime mobilisation amid rising regional tensions.
  • This mobilisation bill follows recent security incidents, including Algeria shooting down a Malian drone near its border and strained relations with neighboring Morocco, Mali, and France.
  • The 69-article draft law, citing Article 99 of Algeria’s Constitution, grants sweeping powers to the military over civilians, the economy, and key sectors during crises, not limited to war.
  • The bill includes penalties of up to ten years for leaking mobilisation plans and prison terms for disobeying orders, while President Tebboune calls it a necessary legal measure for national crises.
  • The bill sparks public concern and debate but is framed by officials as a legal update to prepare Algeria amid ongoing regional instability and deteriorated ties with France and Morocco.
