Story summary

On September 10, Algeria announced it would sever diplomatic ties with the United Arab Emirates (UAE), citing the "exhaustion of all means to preserve bilateral ties." The decision came after a period of deteriorating relations marked by mutual criticism and tensions over regional policies. Algeria also closed its airspace to Emirati civilian and military aircraft but allowed commercial flights to Algiers airport until 2026. The move follows Algeria's previous actions, such as the cancellation process for an air services agreement signed in May 2013, reflecting broader issues including alleged interference by the UAE in North African affairs. The UAE responded formally without addressing specifics, while unofficial voices noted that relations should be managed through open dialogue and clarity of interest.
