| Suicide bomb blasts and gun attacks have left at least seven people dead in the centre of Indonesia's capital. | |
| The apparently co-ordinated deadly assault - which police say involved up to 14 militants - follows threats by Isis to put the country in its "spotlight". | |
| Amid an ongoing battle between militants and security services, Jakarta police spokesman Colonel Muhammad Iqbal said officers had recovered the bodies of four attackers. It was not clear if more remained at large. | |
| Bank security guard Tri Seranto said he saw at least five attackers, including three suicide bombers who entered a nearby Starbucks and blew themselves up. | |
| He said he saw two other men carrying handguns walk into a police post before hearing gunfire emerge from the base. | |
| Meanwhile, a Reuters photographer who witnessed the aftermath of the explosions said: "The Starbucks cafe windows are blown out. | |
| "I see three dead people on the road. There has been a lull in the shooting but someone is on the roof of the building and police are aiming their guns at him." | |
