Algeria’s civil protection services have declared a national day of mourning after ten people died in multiple drownings in a single day.
The victims died in five Algerian provinces: Tizi Ouzou, Djelfa, Blida, Setif and Annaba, due to the lack of safety conditions in water complexes and basins.
The incidents included the drowning of children in the Sablat park in Algiers, where five children lost their lives and three others are undergoing medical treatment for drowning at sea, with victims ranging in age from 8 to 20.
These accidents come in the absence of adequate swimming facilities, especially in non-interior states, so water complexes, agricultural ponds, reservoirs, and dams that are prohibited from swimming become the only solution for residents.
The tragedy highlights the need for proper swimming facilities and awareness of the dangers of swimming in unsafe places, while the incident is sparking outrage on social media, with some calling for an immediate investigation into the absence of facilities and safety officials.
