Pages of history not to be forgotten The battle of Ait yahia Moussa (30 km south of Tizi-Ouzou), which took place on January 6, 1959, at Yougherf ne, is an epic of the national liberation war that bears witness to the courage and bravery of the moudjahidines, armed with faith in the righteousness of their fight to liberate Algeria from the French colonial yoke. The arsenal mobilized by the colonial army was no match for the courage and determination of the moudjahidines of the Arm e de Lib ration Nationale (ALN), according to the testimonies of survivors of this terrible, hellish battle. Former moudjahidines from the region report that the enemy's numerical advantage and over-equipment were no match for the courage and determination of the much outnumbered moudjahidines.The horror of this apocalyptic battle, in which napalm, a banned incendiary weapon, was used against the courage of the moudjahidine fueled by their unshakeable faith in the righteousness of their cause, is an event engraved in the memory of the region's inhabitants.
