Diplomatic tensions between Algeria and Morocco, two former French colonies, remain at an all-time low after Algeria cut all ties in 2021 due to "hostile acts."
"We knew we were in Algeria, because a black Algerian dinghy came towards us," Mohamed Kissi, brother of one of the deceased, explained. The coast guard opened fire, killing Kissi’s brother Bilal and their friend. Peter Aitken is a Fox News Digital reporter with a focus on national and global news.
Reports claimed that the group tried to flee the coast guard, which would have prompted the shooting, but Kissi insists they did not try to run. Their family has asked Moroccan authorities to bring the case to international courts.
