Sports photographers protest against new FAF regulations

During the match between ES Sétif and Moustakbal Rouissat for the ninth round of the professional league, local photographers staged a protest against the Algerian Football Federation's latest directive. By boycotting pitch-side work and laying their vests on the ground, the media professionals expressed their opposition to the ban on video recording within stadiums. They argue that limiting their work to photography restricts media freedom and impacts the quality of football coverage, urging the federation to engage in dialogue to find a balanced solution that respects their professional rights.
