Algeria: Three soldiers die in suicide bomb attack |
2008-09-30 |
(AKI) - A suicide blast in an Algerian village has killed at least three soldiers and wounded six others, reported Algerian state media on Monday. A suicide car bomber allegedly struck a checkpoint in the village of Dellys, following 'iftar', the meal that breaks the fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Ramadan is scheduled to end in the North African country on Tuesday. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, but previous attacks have been claimed by Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb organisation. |
