Algerian Security Forces Search For 33 Suicide Bomber Recruits

Algerian security forces have compiled a dossier on 33 individuals, including one woman, known to have been recruited to carry out suicide attacks.

The dossier followed information given by terrorists apprehended in recent weeks.

The recruits, most of them from the capital Algiers and its environs, volunteered to carry out operations in Iraq, but it is suspected that they will ultimately operate within Algeria.
