About the time in Aleg
Aleg follows the civil time used across its region of Mauritania; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:39 and sunset at 07:16 local time, giving 12h 36m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (16.96, -13.72) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Aleg.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Aleg day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 09:00–17:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
