Algerian War

Lyès Deriche, the son of Mouhamed Deriche, housed in his villa in the Algerian commune of Clos-Salembier the meeting of the Group of 22 baptized Revolutionary Committee of Unity and Action (RCUA).{{cite web|url=http://wwwactuworld.blogspot.com/2013/06/24-juin-1954-tenue-de-la-reunion-du.html|title=24 juin 1954 : Tenue de la réunion du Groupe des " 22 " historiques|publisher=|access-date=6 March 2017|archive-date=2 March 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170302200101/http://wwwactuworld.blogspot.com/2013/06/24-juin-1954-tenue-de-la-reunion-du.html|url-status=live}}

On 25 July 1954, in the modest villa belonging to Lyès Deriche, twenty-two Algerians spoke for the unlimited revolution until total independence. They were all elders of the Special Organization who were summoned in the second half of June 1954.{{cite web|url=http://www.djazairess.com/fr/lemaghreb/45912|title=Juillet 1954: La réunion du Clos-Salembier|publisher=|access-date=6 March 2017|archive-date=1 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201041115/https://www.djazairess.com/fr/lemaghreb/45912|url-status=live}}

Many of them were from families where there were qaids and bachaghas who had studied in the schools of the Association Of Algerian Muslim scholars.{{cite web|url=http://www.djazairess.com/fr/horizons/189156|title=Hommage à Lyes Derriche|publisher=|access-date=6 March 2017|archive-date=1 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201040446/https://www.djazairess.com/fr/horizons/189156|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=http://excellence.fondation-faac.org/?page_id=51|title=Nos 22 héros – 22 héros, 22 bourses|publisher=|access-date=6 March 2017|archive-date=6 June 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190606152740/http://excellence.fondation-faac.org/?page_id=51|url-status=live}}

Lyès Deriche, a friend of Zoubir Bouadjadj, was a former militant of the Movement for the Triumph of Democratic Liberties. He welcomed Mohamed Boudiaf who was the revolutionary leader of Algiers, and had prepared the meal for the participants in the historic meeting.{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ZTlMK_m0v08C|title=Dictionnaire biographique de militants nationalistes algériens: E.N.A, P.P.A., M.T.L.D., 1926–1954|first=Benjamin|last=Stora|date=1 January 1985|publisher=L'Harmattan|via=Google Books|access-date=3 October 2020|archive-date=21 May 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240521150941/https://books.google.com/books?id=ZTlMK_m0v08C|url-status=live}}

About noon the owner of the house, Deriche, invited the presents to a couscous, and after a short pause they returned to work.{{cite web|url=http://www.djazairess.com/fr/lnr/247521|title=La réunion des 22 : quand le sort de l'Algérie bascule !|publisher=|access-date=6 March 2017|archive-date=1 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201040149/https://www.djazairess.com/fr/lnr/247521|url-status=live}}
