Dozens die in suicide bomb attack

At least 43 people died in Algeria's deadliest terrorist attack since the 1990s when a suicide bomber rammed a car full of explosives into applicants queuing outside a police academy.

More than 40 people were also injured in the attack, according to officials.

Witnesses said the blast in the town of Les Issers, some 35 miles east of Algiers, dug a 3ft-deep crater in the road and ripped off parts of the police academy's roof.
