| Algeria's main rebel group with alleged ties to al Qaeda has killed two soldiers in an ambush east of the capital Algiers, a newspaper said on Saturday. The attack on Thursday evening near the town Thenia, 30 km (20 miles) east of Algiers, came a day after a summit of Arab heads of state was held in the capital. Two soldiers in civilian clothes were on their way home when they were killed by a unit of the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC), newspaper Liberte said. |
