The ongoing rivalry between Morocco and Algeria has extended into cyberwarfare, with hackers from both countries targeting government websites, media outlets, and sensitive data. Yabiladi recapped cyber incidents between Moroccan and Algerian hackers over the last 15 years, most of which followed political developments.
Tensions between Algeria and Morocco are spilling over into the realm of cyber warfare. The Algerian hacker group JabaRoot DZ has claimed responsibility for an unprecedented series of intrusions into the computer systems of several Moroccan institutions, resulting in the leak of large volumes of sensitive data. From the Ministry of Employment’s website to the CNSS database, the breaches have exposed serious vulnerabilities in some of the kingdom’s digital infrastructure.
In recent weeks, tensions between Mali and Algeria have escalated, with armed confrontations at the border. In this interview with Yabiladi, Ali Ansari, president of the Timbuktu Center for Studies, analyzes the stakes of this regional conflict.
In Tangier, the participation of PJD members in a solidarity march for Palestine sparked a strong reaction from the Moroccan Front for Support of Palestine and Against Normalization, largely led by Al Adl wal Ihsane (AWI). This incident reignites deep divisions between the two Islamist movements, stemming from longstanding rivalries and disagreements over Morocco’s normalization with Israel.
While Algeria’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the visits of French officials to Saharan cities as provocative, President Tebboune took a more conciliatory stance, calling the dispute with Paris «entirely fabricated» and asserting that these visits «are not a provocation». His remarks suggest an effort to repair relations with France, much like Algeria did with Spain following a similar diplomatic crisis.
