US issues Christmas travel warning for Indonesia
The United States' embassy in Indonesia has issued a security warning to
Americans, saying they could be targeted in a Christmas holiday bombing campaign.
The embassy says the potential for additional bombings at places where Americans
and Westerners are known to live or congregate is particularly high during the weeks
around Christmas through the New Year.
The warning was issued in an email to US citizens.
Islamic militants carried out a series of bomb attacks on churches throughout
Indonesia on Christmas Eve 2000.
