Paris says Algeria ‘seeking to humiliate France’

Algeria is trying to humiliate France, France’s interior minister said on Friday, after several Algerian influencers were arrested for inciting violence in a growing crisis between Paris and its former colony. Four influencers supportive of Algerian authorities have been arrested in recent days over videos that are suspected of calling for violent acts in France. Algeria meanwhile has been holding French-Algerian novelist Boualem Sansal on national security charges.
