Angriffe Militanter in Indonesien
May 14, 2018 -
Eine Familie islamistischer Militanter in Indonesien nahmen ihr achtjähriges Kind bei einem Selbstmordattentat auf Polizisten mit in den Tod. Der Vorfall ereignete sich nur einen Tag nach einem ähnlichen Attentat – eine ebenfalls militante Familie tötete 13 Personen durch Selbstmordbomben in drei Kirchen in der gleichen Stadt.
Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim-majority country,
has seen a recent resurgence in homegrown militancy, and the recent attacks in Surabaya have raised concerns about the potency of jihadist networks.
The attacks are the deadliest in Indonesia linked to Islamic State and the worst since October 2005, when three suicide bombers blew themselves up in Bali restaurants killing 20.
Police suspected Sunday’s attacks on the churches were carried out by a cell of the Islamic State-inspired group Jemaah Ansharut Daulah (JAD), an umbrella organisation on a U.S. State Department terrorist list that is reckoned to have drawn hundreds Indonesian sympathizers of Islamic State.
