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.

Chiefs of Staff

  • Ahmed Gaid Salah (2004–present)
  • Mohamed Lamari (1993–2004)
  • Abdelmalek Guenaizia (1990–93) – led the armoured brigade at Ras-El-Ma, that was later to become the 8th Armoured Division from 1970 to 1976
  • Mostefa Belloucif (1982–84)
  • Tahar Zbiri (1963–67)
