Algiers, Algeria | April 11th, 2025 — Dzair Tube Media Group has cemented its dominance in the Algerian digital media landscape during the holy month of Ramadan 2025, breaking unprecedented records in views, interactions, and engagements across its multilingual platforms and social media channels. The group, which operates in Arabic, English, and French, continues to distinguish itself as Algeria’s only trilingual news outlet—most notably through its English-language coverage, which appeals to an elite and international audience, including diplomats and expatriates.
In a historic milestone, Dzair Tube has amassed over 500 million views and interactions in the form of likes, comments, shares, and follows throughout Ramadan across all its platforms—spanning its news portal, the “Dzair Sport” digital newspaper, its popular YouTube channel, and official pages on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X (formerly Twitter), and beyond. This figure also includes engagements via affiliated and partner pages that share the group’s content.
Of this massive total, nearly 200 million views and interactions were recorded exclusively through Dzair Tube’s verified official page, reflecting its unmatched influence and traction during the holy month.
A standout example of this performance was a viral video report highlighting the Algerian Army’s successful downing of a Turkish Bayraktar drone near the Malian border. The video alone attracted 1.5 million views and over 34,000 interactions on the official page, with millions more reached via supporting platforms.
What distinguished Dzair Tube’s output this Ramadan was the exceptional creativity and dedication of its correspondents across Algeria and abroad. The team produced six original programs, all of which resonated deeply with viewers. Among them, the human-interest show “Ftourna Andkoum” showcased local Ramadan traditions, communal iftars, and charitable initiatives in provinces like Mostaganem, Batna, and Tissemsilt. Another audience favorite, “Hanajer Qur’aniya”, offered mesmerizing Qur’anic recitations from across the nation.
“Nharak Halal Ya Saem” shed light on the demanding routines of workers such as sanitation personnel and traditional street vendors during fasting hours. Meanwhile, “Youmiyat Moathir Ijabi” profiled inspiring Algerians making a difference—most notably a lawyer and philanthropist from Béjaïa. Other highlights included “Podcast Sâafni Maâ Anis”, recorded in Mostaganem, and “Kalam El Mizan”, produced in Batna by correspondent Rania Kafi.
The touching show “Rabbi A’tak” awarded 10 Umrah pilgrimages to individuals with moving personal stories from Djelfa, further amplifying the network’s social impact. International coverage was led by correspondents Ali Mekkaoui and Siham Fedali, who offered immersive stories of the Algerian diaspora observing Ramadan in France.
Dzair Tube’s digital TV programs also garnered millions of views, drawing praise for their depth and variety. The religious show “Sare’ou ila El Khayrat” with Sheikh Djelloul Hajimi tackled pressing societal concerns—such as the rise of hate speech following football matches and the double-edged influence of social media figures. “Ihsan”, presented by journalist Samir Bourzek, addressed urgent humanitarian cases that sparked wide public solidarity.
On the sports front, the daily “Moujaz Riyadhi” and weekly “Dzair Sport” shows provided timely coverage of trending sports stories. Popular audience-interactive shows like “Jawéb Terbah” and “Erbah ma’a VMS” rewarded participants with valuable gifts and prizes. Additionally, “Fast Podcast” explored cultural, social, and political issues trending online, while “Souk Hassan”, a hidden-camera segment, offered comic relief.
These impressive achievements would not have been possible without the institutional backing and political will expressed at the highest levels of the Algerian state. Dzair Tube’s continued rise has been facilitated by the unwavering support of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, whose vision for strengthening the digital media sector has empowered platforms like Dzair Tube to rival traditional audiovisual outlets. Special recognition also goes to the General Directorate of Communications at the Presidency, headed by Advisor Kamel Sidi Said, and the sustained efforts of Minister of Communication Dr. Mohamed Meziane, whose close attention to the sector has created a conducive environment for excellence.
Under the guidance of CEO Maamar Gani, and despite limited financial resources, Dzair Tube’s youthful team of around 40 journalists, technicians, and administrative staff continues to deliver impactful journalism. The CEO remains committed to expanding the group’s infrastructure, aiming to establish a larger headquarters equipped with high-end studios that reflect the professional standards and ambitions of the institution—positioning Dzair Tube as a pan-African media leader capable of countering the narratives of hostile platforms like Hespress.
Dr. Mohamed Meziane’s recent call for a “national media front” grounded in patriotism and unwavering support for Algeria’s values, institutions, and just causes aligns seamlessly with Dzair Tube’s mission. The platform remains at the forefront of this vision, embodying a model of media that informs, unites, and elevates Algerian society in the digital age.
Finally, the group does not miss the opportunity to extend its heartfelt and sincere gratitude to its millions of followers across its social media platforms, whose daily constructive criticism plays a vital role in guiding its trajectory, refining its accomplishments, and laying the foundation for a promising future. The group also expresses its profound appreciation to its correspondents stationed across all Algerian provinces, whose remarkable and dignified work deserves the highest commendation. Special thanks are likewise due to the France bureau, which diligently relays the daily sentiments and patriotic messages of the Algerian diaspora. In the same spirit, the group conveys its gratitude to the supporting and sponsoring companies that stood by many of its Ramadan programs.
To conclude, the group invites its esteemed and loyal audience to stay tuned for a host of upcoming surprises—diverse and exciting content designed to entertain, uplift, and satisfy even the most refined tastes. May the unwavering support for “Dzair Tube” endure, and may the boundless affection of its followers continue to inspire its mission to serve and elevate the beloved and cherished Algerian nation.
