No Algiers median yet

Only 1 tracked Algiers case has both an interview and an approval date — too few to publish a median for this post.

Across all 588 resolved cases we track, at every post, the median is 3 days from interview to approval. Treat that as background, not as a prediction for Algiers — per-post medians vary widely, which is the whole reason these pages exist.
