ALGIERS — Algeria has officially lifted a state of emergency in place for the past 19 years.
The official APS news agency says the ordinance doing away with the restrictive measure was published Thursday in the
Official Journal, a move that did away with it.

Publication of the change in the
Official Journal was the final step to lift the state of emergency, put in place as Algeria embarked on an era of violence that ballooned into a deadly Islamist insurgency.
