1898 Algerian riots

The Anti-Jewish Riots of 1898 in Algeria were a series of violent attacks against the Jewish community in Algeria, French North Africa, that occurred from January 18 to 24, 1898.

The riots were sparked by the release of Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish French officer who had been falsely convicted of treason.

Riots occurred in Algiers, Mostaganem, Si-Mustapha, Boufarik, and Blida.
