I've just checked back again with ennahar and yes unfortunately at least 2 full families with young children have perished. Obviously the body count and identification is still ongoing.

It's important to note that this is the 6th such accident of this type in Algeria since 2003.

It's understandably gripped the nation and will do for sometime, however if there's one thing I'm noticing, it's the anger on social media within Algeria. You get a sense of 'enough is enough' for them and these types of incidents. However knowing the country, it's unlikely anything will change.
