Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, who is running in the upcoming presidential elections on September 7, stated that his country’s army is ready to act the moment the borders between Egypt and the Gaza Strip are opened.
In his speech on the fourth day of the election campaign, Tebboune declared from the city of Constantine in northeastern Algeria: “We will never abandon Palestine, especially Gaza”, adding, “I swear to God if they allow us and open the borders between Egypt and Gaza… then there is something we can do.”
He continued, “I made a promise and the army is ready as soon as the borders are opened and our trucks are allowed to enter. Within 20 days, we will build three hospitals, send hundreds of doctors, and help rebuild what the Zionists destroyed.”
The Algerian president has expressed on several occasions his country’s full support for the Palestinian cause, stressing that it is a sacred cause.
