- Preventing violent extremism
- Protecting critical infrastructure
This proactive stance has already yielded results. Notably:
- January 2025: A four‑member cell was eliminated in Majel Bel Abbès.
- January 2025: Terrorist Seddik Laabidi was neutralized in the Fériana region.
What This Means for Citizens
- Enhanced public safety through continuous intelligence gathering and rapid response.
