The Haute Autorité de la Presse et l’Audiovisuel (HAPA) has suspended for 60 days each two news websites over their critical publications.
On March 9, 2024, the HAPA, the Mauritanian media regulator, suspended two local news websites, Anbaa info and Taqadoum, for 60 days for “undermining Algeria”. In a statement posted on its Facebook page, the regulator accuses the two outlets of publishing “false information” about the neighboring country.
Anbaa info was suspended following the publication of several articles considered by the authorities as intentionally insulting, openly prejudicing and inflammatory towards the Algerian government.
