At least 23 people, including foreigners, were killed and 90 others injured in the terrorist attack on saturday (01/10), almost 3 years after the first terrorist attack with bombs on the island of Bali.

The first 2 explosions went off almost simultaneously at Kafe Nyoman and nearby Kafe Menega on the seafood restaurant's area at Jimbaram beach at 18:50, a very busy time. The third bomb exploded 10 min. later at Raja's noddle and steak house in downtown Kuta, nearby the supermarket and shopping center Matahari at kuta Square.

The distance between Jimbaram and Kuta is about 5 Km. The blasts took place just 3 days before the major hindu festival of "Galungan" that celebrates the victory of good over evil.

The police bomb squad of Bali discovered 4 more bombs which failed to explode and 3 more explosions of bombs of smaller scale were also registered.

The difference now was that instead of using car bombs, this time the terrorists used young suicidal men in between 20 to 25 yrs old that carried the bombs in backpacks that exploded on their backs.

From all the victims, more than 90% were indonesians from which the majority were tourists from other islands of muslim religion also.

We leave here registered our condolences and feelings to the families and friends of the victims.
