Algerian National Mujaheed Day Commemorates Two Memorable Dates in Algerian Glorious Revolution’s history

In a message marking The Algerian National Mujaheed Day and the double anniversary of the North Constantine Offensive, on 20 August 1955, and the Soummam Congress on 20 August 1956, two memorable dates in the history of Algerian glorious Liberation Revolution, Algerian President said :  “The North Constantine Offensive taught a lesson to the colonial army that believed it could stifle the people’s Revolution with fire and iron, not to mention the immeasurable sacrifices and acts of bravery of these heroes who carried the Revolution and exalted the National Liberation Army.”

President Tebboune affirmed that: “On 20 August 1956, the Soummam Congress was held at a time when the Mujahideen (war veterans) fought with resistance and heroism in the bosom of the Algerian people, marking a major political and military turning point that demonstrated that the Algerian people would not bow to the tyranny of the colonial army power.”
