The apparently coordinated overnight blasts in the town of Reghaia, 20 miles east of the capital, and the eastern Algiers suburb of Dergana were the first bombings of police stations in Algeria in more than five years.

Sporadic clashes between Islamist guerrillas and security forces normally take place in isolated rural areas of the country of 33 million.
