Scores of Algerians flooded the streets of Algiers on Friday, keeping up their demands for the resignation of the President Abdelaziz Boutefika, as the protests enter a fourth week.
Hundreds of thousands of people reportedly took part in the the demonstrations.
The protesters are taking a stand after the country’s president announced that he would withdraw his bid for a fifth term in office but stopped short of stepping down, delaying the country’s presidential elections slated for April 18.
Bouteflika’s announcement came following weeks of mass demonstrations against his re-election bid and alleged plans to extend his 20-year rule.
