Biographical Record

Ramdane Djamel was an intrepid young militant born in the maritime province of Skikda. Active in the PPA and the paramilitary Special Organization, he was chosen as one of the 22 revolutionary leaders who met in Clos-Salembier in June 1954 to launch the Algerian War of Independence.

Assigned to Wilaya 2 (North Constantine) alongside Didouche Mourad and Zighoud Youcef, Ramdane Djamel coordinated underground networks across Skikda and Collo. During the historic August 20, 1955 offensive that transformed the revolution into a mass popular insurrection, he fell on the battlefield. Today, the town of Ramdane Djamel in Skikda bears his name.
