Chief of Staff of the People's National Army
The Chief of Staff of the People's National Army is the highest position in the Algerian People's National Armed Forces (the armed forces of Algeria as a whole, rather than the army solely). It was left empty for many years after Chief of Staff Tahar Zbiri attempted a coup against President Houari Boumedienne.
