Algeria attacks kill 21 in two days
|
ALGIERS: Islamic insurgents killed up to nine police officers in an ambush Wednesday in the Berber region east of the capital, just a kilometer from police headquarters. It was the second major attack by insurgents in two days. A loud explosion surprised police returning from a routine mission in two vans, then insurgents opened fire, killing nine officers and injuring two others, the daily Liberte reported. The official APS news agency said eight police officers were killed and two injured in the attack in Beni Douala, a village in the mountainous Berber region some 120 kilometers east of Algiers. Insurgents and police exchanged gunfire for about 45 minutes, according to Liberte, which said the attack occurred a kilometer from police headquarters.
