As I was still writing the post about explosions at the two hotels in Central Business District Jakarta, Mega Kuningan, I received a message that an explosion just happened also in Muara Angke. A car bomb just exploded outside a shopping complex in Muara Angke and killed 2 people.

Muara Angke is famous for its massive fish market. The explosion happened at the toll road exit to Muara Angke. There has not been any more detailed report about the third explosion on TV or internet yet. The focus of the media is currently more on the two luxury international hotels in Jakarta that had killed 8 people. The third explosion outside the local shopping complex in fish market Muara Angke has killed 2 people so far.

Indonesians are twittering about the three explosions. Expressions of shock, worries and confusion about what exactly is going on are colouring the tweets of Jakarta’s twitterers. We still don’t know what caused the car explosion in Muara Angke.
