阿尔及利亚数十外国人质的命运情况不明

2013-01-19来源:VOA

A hostage crisis at a gas complex in the Algerian desert entered its third day Friday, with little known about the fate of those still held there.

Algerian forces stormed the Ain Amenas gas plant Thursday, freeing an unknown number of foreign and local workers, but leaving several hostages and kidnappers dead.

Foreign governments, which were not alerted to the raid beforehand, were nervously trying to discern the condition of the 41 foreign hostages reported held at the facility.

At least four foreign captives were confirmed safe by their governments -- three Japanese and an Irishman. The fate of the others - reported to be from the U.S., Japan, Norway, Romania, Philippines, Britain, France, Malaysia and Austria, is unknown.
