Australia warns of new Bali bomb threat

The Australian government warned today that there could be more terror attacks on the Indonesian island of Bali, as families of the victims of last year’s bombings there prepare to visit to mark the anniversary of the terror attacks.

The foreign ministry warned Australians to defer all non-essential travel to Indonesia, on the day police in Indonesia said they were hunting down terrorists who had prepared two bombs, and hoped to capture the suspects before the October 12 anniversary of last year’s Bali bombings that killed 202 people, including 26 Britons.
