Indonesian capital Jakarta was hit by a series of suicide bombings and gun attacks which has left at least seven people dead.
An orchestrated attack began Thursay morning when three suicide bombers almost simultaneously detonated explosives near a Starbucks cafe while a group of gunmen attacked a police post nearby with gunfire and grenades.
Witnesses reported up to a dozen attackers may be involved, and police said four have been killed.
A police officer and one foreign national were also killed, Budi Gunawan, the deputy chief of the Indonesian National Police said, with at least 10 others injured.
Starbucks issued a statement saying all of its cafes in Jakarta were closed until further notice.
The US Embassy in Jakarta also issued a warning for all US citizens to avoid the downtown area.
Islamic militant groups have claimed responsibility for several bombings in Indonesia in recent years.
Two Jakarta hotels were hit in 2009 which killed seven people, while the island of Bali was targeted in 2002, and again in 2005 with more than 200 people killed including dozens of Australian tourists.
No group has claimed responsibility but it bears a similar hallmark to the recent Paris attacks.
