Rising incidents of dog attacks are causing widespread anxiety in Sétif and Constantine, with children being the most vulnerable during their commute to school. In Ouled Saber, Sétif, a six-year-old boy suffered severe head injuries after being attacked by a German Shepherd. The victim's father alleged that four young men were handling the dog before fleeing the scene, leading the National Gendarmerie to launch an investigation. This event follows a past attack on a female student at Ferhat Abbas University. Similarly, in Constantine, neighborhoods like '20 Aout' report large packs of stray dogs roaming freely, often originating from construction sites or abandoned buildings, endangering local students. While authorities have recently conducted rabies vaccination campaigns, residents and school associations are calling for more robust intervention strategies to control the stray dog population and ensure the safety of public spaces.
