Detailed explanation-1: -The Algerian War was very violent as hundreds of thousands were killed. The rebel National Liberation Front (FLN) heavily contributed to the barbarism of the war, for they often targeted and killed those who disagreed with them, regardless of their civilian status, as they sought to secure Algerian independence.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Algerian War (also known as the Algerian Revolution or the Algerian War of Independence) was a major armed conflict between France and the Algerian National Liberation Front (French: Front de Libération Nationale – FLN) from 1954 to 1962, which led to Algeria winning its independence from France.
