New Algeria suicide attack kills 11

Algeria was rocked by two further suicide bombings which killed at least 11 people today as terrorists pressed on with a brutal return to the violence which devatstated the north African country in the 1990s.

The attacks came less than 24 hours after at least 43 people were killed and 45 injured when a car packed with explosives rammed into a police academy where university graduates were lining up to take an entrance exam.

Although no one has claimed responsibility for the bombings, Algerian media outlets attributed them to the radical Islamic groups which plunged the country into a decade-long civil war in 1991.

After the latest attack, Algerian state radio said at least 11 people had died and 31 injured in two attacks on a hotel and a military headquarters in Bouira, south east of Algiers.
