The battle was led by two battalions of the National Liberation Army (ALN), led by the two martyrs Didani Ahmed, called Lazreg, and Guettaf M'hamed, on April 18, 1958, on the heights of Mount Kessal, not far of the communes of Stitten and El Bayadh, which is characterized by the density of its vegetation and its rugged paths, which made it a fortified place that the mujahideen used as a base to launch numerous operations against the French colonial army in the region.[4][5][6]
