US warns of more terrorist attacks in Indonesia

The US warned that extremists may be planning more terrorist attacks against its interests in Indonesia, as the Southeast Asian country’s defence minister said he was now “extremely sure” that the al-Qaida-linked group Jemaah Islamiyah was behind this week’s hotel bombing in Jakarta.

“The potential remains throughout Indonesia for violence and terrorist actions against US citizens and interests,” the US State Department said on its website Saturday.
