Hassiba Ben Bouali

"If I die, you must not mourn me, I will have died happy, I assure you"

"Don't worry about me, you have to think about the little ones who will soon be returning and who I hope will work well"

"You know that I am very much wanted here in Algiers, so it is impossible for me to do nothing. So I have finally decided that it is my duty to go to the maquis where I know I could serve as a nurse or even, if necessary, and I hope with all my heart, fight with weapons in hand. The road will of course be quite difficult to reach a maquis, but I hope that with God's help I will arrive safe and sound"

"Hassiba BEN BOUALI was part of Khechida Abdellah's group in 1956, known as "MOURAD", which worked at the Birkhadem laboratory. She transported bottles of acid for "MOURAD;Yacef Saadi"

"In a press conference by the French authorities at the time, Hasssiba is described as "a nurse, cultured, (who) began her subversive activity, like Zohra Drif, in Khechida Abdallah's group"

"Hassiba was beautiful, young and "cultured"
