14 UN Workers Missing After Blast in Algeria

Two suspected truck bombs rocked Algiers, the capital of Algeria today. One exploded just outside of the United Nations headquarters causing massive damage to UN offices. The other target was a building housing Algeria's Constitutional Council and Supreme Court. The death toll from the blasts ranges from the 22 to 62 depending on the source. A militant Islamic group with connections to al Qaeda, Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC), is suspected in the bombings. The group is also known as al Qaeda Islamic Maghreb and reportedly merged with al Qaeda last year.
