Tunis--A Tunisian policeman was killed and four wounded Monday in clashes with jihadists on the border with Algeria, the interior ministry said, hours after another attack left three policemen dead.
"A national guardsman was martyred and four others wounded in Jendouba region on the border with Algeria during a shoot-out with a terrorist group," ministry spokesman Mohamed Ali Aroui told AFP.
Earlier, the ministry reported that three Tunisian policemen and a suspected jihadist were killed in clashes in the centre of the country, blaming an Al-Qaeda-linked jihadist group for the violence.
