| 2016-10-09 | |
In a statement published by the jihadi Amaq Agency, ISIS claimed responsibility for a bomb attack on an Algerian Army convoy in the Skikda Province. ISIS militants detonated an explosive device at an army convoy near the Tamalous town in Skikda Province, in northeastern Algeria. It was not immediately clear whether the explosion caused any casualties. The ISIS leadership vowed to continue its attacks in Algeria and threatened to extend its operations against government forces. In September 2014, a group of militants deserted al-Qaeda ranks and pledged allegiance to the Islamic State (ISIS). According to reports, at least 200 ISIS militants are currently active in Algeria. | |
