January 14, 2016 10:44

A police spokesman has said that they received an Islamic State warning in December that there'd be a"concert in Jakarta."

Four people have died in the bomb blasts until now, with some police sources saying that it was grenade explosions, and not bombs. Earlier reports have claimed that there have been a total of six blasts in the surrounding area of the Sarinah mall.

Reports say that SWAT teams were seen engaging gunmen, but there is no confirmation on that.
