Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika has postponed the 18 April presidential elections and said he will not seek a fifth term in office.
President Bouteflika's candidacy had provoked mass protests across Algeria over the past few weeks.

The report underlines the scale of humanitarian needs in the war-torn country suffering from an ongoing civil war since 2011.
The overview is a reminder that the crisis is far from over for millions of people in Syria, who have lived through eight years of crisis, said the UN chief's spokesperson Stephane Dujarric during a press conference.
A spokesman for Germany’s interior ministry (BMI) wrote The Jerusalem Post: “The BMI does not comment on concrete prohibition considerations in general; this applies regardless of whether there is reason to do so in individual cases.”
