| 2005-12-31 |
| The Salafist Group for Call and Combat (GSPC) in Algeria issued a communiqué dated December 24, 2005, in which they claim responsibility for a double bombing targeting Algerian forces in the district of Boumerdas, at the port of Dallas. The message indicates that âafter good reconnaissance,â the first explosive struck a military ship and upon the arrival of another group to support and rescue the victims, a second explosive was detonated, allegedly resulting in âheavyâ losses to the enemy. Further, the group states that the âdevilsâ sough to obfuscate the extent of the casualties in the media; however, the loud noise from the explosion and attention of nearby residents forced the media to publish the accurate news. |
