Bomb
in Bali
The
bomb, in the resort of Kuta, destroyed the Sari Club and a crowded nightspot.
Many people have fallen victims to this blast. Many of them were foreign
tourists, especially from Australia. They were burner beyond recognition. Some
tourist who were at the scene of the blast said there were two explosions
around the nightclub. One bomb had exploded outside Paddy’s Bar before a Bar
bomb hit the Sari Club which was located some meters away.
Hundred
were injured in the explosion and about 220 Australians remain unaccounted for.
The U.K. Foreign Secretary, Jack Straw, said that 33 Britons were among those
killed in the Bali attack. The Australian Primer Minister, John Howard, called
its borders, saying it had been a problem for a long time.
Lists
of missing people have been posted in Bali and official said that it could take
days to identity all the victims, some of whom were trapped in the Sari Club by
a wall of flames. A notice board at the hospital in Bali includes a section
called “Unknown Identity” and detailed list on victims such as : “Young girl in
intensive care, 11-14 years old, face burned, income, Causation,” or “Girl in
intensive care, about 5 years old, 130 cm, fair skin, Caucasian with reddish
brown hair. She has a purplish belly button ring.”
Many
embassies, including the British and the American, are advising their people to
cancel spending their planned holidays in Indonesia, and all U.S. citizens in
the country have been told to leave including diplomats and non-essential
government staff.
