ALGERIA-INDEPENDENCE-ANNIVERSARY
This combo of two photos shows on (Left) soldiers standing guard in a street leading to the Ketchaoua Mosque on December 11, 1960 and (right) people walking down a street leading to the Ketchaoua Mosque in the historical Casbah distrisct on October 29, 2014. On the night of November 1, 1954, known as "Toussaint Rouge" (Red All Saints Day) because it coincided with the Catholic festival, some 30 explosions rocked government targets in the colony which had been under French occupation for 132 years, leaving seven people dead. Sixty years on, the war of independence from France remains a defining moment for Algeria and its elite. AFP PHOTO /JEAN-CLAUDE COMBRISSON/FAROUK BATICHE
