Algeria

Eight soldiers and four terrorists were killed during fighting in eastern Algeria. The army killed a suicide bomber in the province of Tizi Ouzou earlier this week. The foreign minister said “foreign military bases on Algerian soil are not on the agenda.” French nationals are leaving Algeria after al Qaeda threats to attack foreigners.
