Terrorism in Indonesia

Turkey on March 28 strongly condemned the terrorist attack targeting a Catholic church on Indonesia's South Sulawesi Island which left at least 20 people injured.

Indonesian anti-terrorism police killed three suspects after a gunfight on the outskirts of the capital, Jakarta, on Dec. 21, and foiled a suicide bomb plot, a police spokesman said. 

Militants launched a gun and bomb assault killing at least six people in Indonesian capital Jakarta on Thursday.

Police said the attack followed a threat by Islamic State fighters to put the country in their “spotlight”, as Reuters reports.

Indonesian police said Dec. 21 they were on their highest terror alert after foiling plans for a suicide attack in Jakarta and arresting radicals linked to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group.
