French national is abducted in Algeria
The abduction comes hours after Islamic State militants warned they would target France - and other countries - after it launched air strikes against them in Iraq.
The kidnap took place in the Tizi Ouzou region of Algeria, the ministry said.
No group has so far claimed responsibility for the kidnapping.
An Algerian security official told the AP news agency that the kidnap victim was a 55-year-old man who was hiking with two friends when he was abducted.
