Ammar Belani, a spokesman from the Algerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs denied on Tuesday rumors of Algeria building electric fences along it borders to prevent terrorists infiltration . Beilani noted that the current situation emphasises the need for cross-border military and security cooperation in order to successfully battle terrorism. Last week Algerian interior Minster Daho Ould Kablia said Algeria has reinforced its forces along the eastern border with Tunisia, days after the killing of eight Tunisian soldiers by suspected militants. Algeria\'s army \"reinforced its resources and capabilities on the eastern border of the country because of the troubles that Tunisia is going through,\" Kablia told the national news agency APS. Tunisian troops have intensified their hunt for an armed group in the Mount Chaambi area since the spring, after several members of the security forces were killed or wounded by explosive devices. Algiers has said it strongly condemns \"the base act of terrorism that resulted in several deaths among the Tunisian armed forces.\" Islamist militant groups in Algeria remain active decades after a bloody civil war in the 1990s that killed some 200,000 people, leading some in Tunisia to suggest connections with the group in Mount Chaambi. Algeria\'s foreign ministry condemned on Thursday what it said were \"false allegations\" against Algeria from \"certain circles in Tunisia.\" In a statement published by APS news agency, ministry spokesman Amar Belani decried the allegations as a move to \"deceive the Tunisian people as they are mobilising to unite against terrorism.\" Interior Minister Kablia said there had been an \"exchange of security information between Algeria and its neighbours to fight the various scourges that threaten the security and stability of the region.\" Belani meanwhile renewed previous Algerian statements in support of Tunisia and said the visit on Tuesday by a Tunisian delegation led by Foreign Minister Othman Jarandi, proves that ties between the two ?countries are strong.? The visit \"will be the occasion for both countries officials to examine \"the different segments of bilateral cooperation, notably in issues of security,\" the foreign ministry had previously said in a communiqué. Exchanges of visits by senior officials from Tunisia, Libya and Algeria have led to closer cross-border cooperation.
