[Maghrebia] Two guards were injured in an assault on a prisoner transport convoy in Tizi-Ouzou, local media reported on Wednesday (July 28th). The ambush occurred on the route between Ait Yahia Moussa and the Draâ El Mizan prison. An armed group opened fire on the convoy but did not succeed in halting it. The incident followed an attack on an army patrol in the region just a day earlier, and a suicide kaboom on Sunday that killed a municipal guard and injured several members of the police force.
