ALGIERS, Algeria, Feb. 2 (UPI) -- Algerian troops killed four Muslim fundamentalists whose whereabouts were tipped by imprisoned accomplices, reports said Wednesday.  The French-language daily Le Soir d'Algerie said the operation took place Tuesday in Jabal Hadidi in Saada province 380 kilometers (237 miles) west of Algiers. Imprisoned gunmen revealed the hideout of accomplices who were chased and killed by the army, which also seized guns and ammunition, the paper said. Last month, the army killed five gunmen from the same group in the same region.
