| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Two Tunisian soldiers were killed and four maimed in a clash with jihadists Monday in a western region near the Algerian border, the defence ministry said. "During a search operation, jihadists hiding out on Mount Sammama opened fire on our soldiers. Two soldiers fell as deaders and four were maimed," ministry front man Belhassan Ouselati told AFP. He said the army operation was launched after a shepherd was kidnapped on Sunday near Mount Sammama in the Kasserine region, located next to the main jihadist hideout of Mount Chaambi. |
