22 people were killed on Indonesia’s Sulawesi island today when two bombs exploded in a busy market.
Up to 60 others were wounded in the worst attack in the country since the October 2002 Bali bombings.
Police in Jakarta said the attack bore hallmarks of Islamic militants behind a string of other atrocities in Indonesia, including the Bali blasts in which 202 mainly Western tourists died.
The latest bombs were detonated in the centre of the Christian-dominated town of Tentena in the island's Central Sulawesi province. It has been a flashpoint of sectarian violence in recent years.
People were rushing to help victims of the first bomb when the second explosion struck outside a police station 15 minutes later.
A Christian cleric and an infant were among those killed.
