Al Qaeda had training camps in Macedonia

Three training camps for terrorists were active on the territory of Macedonia, Macedonian professor Ivan Babamovski from the Faculty of Security claims.

On the seminar in Skopje dedicated to the battle against extremism, he warned that the situation in Macedonia and in the region regarding security is very bad and that after the five-fold murder in Macedonia, that took place in April this year, Macedonia might face another wave of terrorist attacks.

Babamovski said that 25 members of a ethnicity living in Macedonia (probably Albanians) have passed the terrorist training in Tehran, Iran.

He also said that the killing of four young Macedonia men and a fisherman near Skopje, Macedonia is certainly an act of terrorism.

"Regardless of this situation, the members of the anti-terrorist coalition don't help Macedonia financially nor technically" - Babamovski said.
