| [Maghrebia] Terrorists killed two Algerian soldiers on Saturday (July 18th) in Tizi Ouzou province, Tout sur l'Algerie reported. The two victims, dressed in civilian clothes, were reportedly shopping in the town of Tabarkoukt, Béni Aissi commune, when terrorists targeted them with automatic weapons. One day after the attack, General Ahmed Gaid Salah, chief of staff of the Algerian Army, made a surprise visit to Tizi Ouzou -- his second trip to the region since September 2008. Salah was to preside over a large meeting of military forces in the area on Sunday. |
