M'Sila
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Msila)
M'Sila (also spelled Msila or MSila) (Arabic: المسيلة) is the capital of the M'Sila Province (wilaya). It has a population of 100,000. M'Sila University is also located in this wilaya.
M'Sila is primarily known for its farming. However, it has also been the site of conflict due to a campaign by the Algerian government to remove Islamist militants from the area [1], [2].
Additionally, M'Sila was the location of the first village constructed as part of a government-run program to transition nomadic Algerians to sedentary life using local materials. The village, now complete, was dubbed Maader and consists of houses, public and trading areas, and a mosque.
