Algeria Oil Hostages Reported Dead After Air Strike
A remote natural gas plant deep in the Algerian Sahara, now the site of an international crisis. Gunmen stormed the location before dawn on Wednesday, killing a reported three people and taking dozens hostage - including foreign nationals: Americans, Japanese and Europeans. The perpetrators are al Qaeda-linked fighters, who say they are acting in response to France's military intervention in Mali's civil war. On Thursday world leaders came out in condemnation of the attack.
