The president of Algeria, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, has been admitted to a military hospital in the capital just days before the country is due to vote in an important constitutional referendum.
On Saturday, Mr. Tebboune went into five days of voluntary self -isolation at the advice of his doctors after many of his aides and government figures tested positive for the coronavirus.
Mr. Tebboune’s office said that he was in a stable condition in a specialist unit and that he was continuing to do his work.
