Just reported: Three explosions in Jimbaran Bay and one in Kuta square. 2 people killed and dozens injured.

You guys hearing anything there. I'm worried, I still have friends staying in Kuta and can't get through via sms or by phone.

Three bombs in Jimbaran and one bomb in Kuta are confirmed.
It was reported, that the bomb in Kuta was inside Matahari !

Bert, Undersand the need to be cryptic but could you please explain - do you mean 9 explosions in Jimbaran or 9 people killed there.

We probably won't know for sure until tomorrow what exactly went went down. All i can say right now is %&#¤&%&¤#%¤# %#%¤ %¤#/%&#¤ terrorists. I'm certain the perpetrators will be caught through a national manhunt and punished (again).

On Jimbaran beach two Cafes have been targeted with some bombs burried in the sand, 9 deaths are confirmed there, but there is a chaos now and the situation is not under controll, 10 ambulances are on stand by and they are searching for further victims.

On Kuta square the Raja cafe was targeted by one or maybe two bombs, have just seen the first picutes on TV.

Tommy - could you give us a respite from your cynicism just till we get through the immediate situation. Some of us are critically concerned about this.

Hi Matsaleh and yes. I have a teenager who was told never to go near that area but she's not home yet and as usual the cell phone is not answering.

Hi I have just joined the forum and I have been horrified by the pictures unfolding of the bombings. I hope all your friends/relatives are safe.
I am a journalist and desperately need to contact people in the affected regions especially eyewitnesses.
Can anyone help me or put me in touch? My email is [email protected] my mobile phone number is 07930 593325
I would appreciate it if you could contact me as soon as you can.
Thanks
