Algeria has closed schools for 10 days following a rise in coronavirus cases.
A statement issued by the presidency said that it was up to the universities to determine whether to close or reschedule their classes.
The statement encouraged people to get vaccinated to counter the spread of the virus.
The decision by President Abdelmadjid Tebboune to shut schools starting from Thursday followed an emergency meeting of ministers, top health and security officials.
