Algeria: Quick reaction alert in airports and harbours
El Khabar was told that security authorities issued strict communiqués to airports and harbours security services to tighten control after Algiers suicide bombings. Air flights and other road and maritime travels noticed a delay owing to careful control undertaken by security services in airports and harbours. Even if the measures are ordinary after the suicide attacks, yet they underscore some European countries fears to be targeted mainly France, as the latter’s home affairs minister stated after Algiers bombings “Attacks taking place in Algiers yesterday unveil the extent of the imminent threat over our country”.

Moreover military check points strengthening in roads leading to airports and harbours, air and maritime travels from Algeria are expected to be submitted to the same extent of control measures by their arrival to the European territories, especially that Qaeda organization in the Islamic Maghreb has already threatened to undertake assaults on European states at the forefront France. In the same connection, the capital witnessed the reappearance of personal object control which almost disappeared; security also has been strengthened in principal entrances of official institutions while Algiers security services reinforced control over highways.
