About the time in El Tarf
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal El Tarf day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 08:00–16:00 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.
Sunrise today lands at 05:49 and sunset at 07:12 local time, giving 13h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (36.75, 8.17) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in El Tarf.
