Algiers - Grieving relatives crowded a morgue in the
Algerian capital on Wednesday as the official death toll
from twin al-Qaeda suicide bombings rose to 31, and rescuers
gave up their search for survivors.
The United Nations said 11 of its staff were killed by one
of the suicide bombers who targeted a UN office in Algiers
on Tuesday, and UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon had ordered
a worldwide security review.
With death tolls ranging from 31 stated by the government to
72 given by leading newspaper al-Watan, seven people were
pulled alive from the debris of the offices of the UN High
Commissioner for Refugees and other UN agencies.
The second attack killed and maimed students packed in a bus
as it passed a car that was detonated outside the Supreme
Court in central Algiers.
