Tensions between Chinese merchants and locals in Algiers flared up in August 2009 when there was a clash in the Algiers suburb of Bab Ezzouar, sparked by a confrontation between a migrant and a shop owner that drew in 1000 people. A non-identified group of assailants attacked a Chinese owned company in Annaba in October 2016.
