Algeria–Israel relations refers to the current and historical relations between Algeria and Israel. The states do not have official diplomatic relations.

History

In the mid 1990s, while Israel and north African states slowly started diplomatic relations, Algeria remained one of the last countries to consider such a move. It was only when Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak met Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika at the funeral of the Moroccan King Hasan II on July 25, 1999 that comments about rapprochement were made.
