Video: Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb Ambushes Two Police Vehicles

On July 3, 2007, Islamist websites posted a video showing an attack on two police vehicles carried out by Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb. The attack, whose date is not given, took place near the town of Takhokht in Tizi Ouzou province in Algeria. The video presents footage shot during the terrorists' reconnaissance of the area, and then shows the preparation of the explosives, followed by the ambush itself. It ends with a March 4, 2007 message by Abu Mus'ab 'Abd Al-Wadoud, commander of Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, in which he calls on collaborators with the Algerian government to repent.
