Eleven people were killed and 31 wounded in two car bomb attacks Wednesday in the eastern Algerian town of Bouira, Algerian radio reported. The early morning blasts came a day after a massive attack on a police academy claimed 43 lives. One of the attacks targetted a passenger bus parked near the Sophie hotel, in the city centre. The second bomb went off near the military headquarters in Bouira, which is 120 kilometres (70 miles) southeast of the capital Algiers.
