Algeria : At Least One Dead In Bomb Attack On Police Stations
2006-10-30
Algiers (AKI) - Two truck bombs exploded on Sunday night outside two police stations in the town of Reghaia, some 30 kilometres east of Algiers, killing at least one person and wounding 14, reports say. The simultaneous attacks are believed to be by Islamic militants. Algeria was wracked by a civil war in the 1990s in which an estimated 200,000 people have died. The Algeria-based Salafite Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC), which has sworn allegiance to al-Qaeda, is the only militant group to have remained active in the country after it refused to abandon the armed struggle in exchange for an amnesty in August.
