Gunmen kill two Americans and Indonesian near Grasberg mine
Gunmen armed with automatic weapons ambushed a convoy to the Grasberg open pit mine in Papua Indonesia killing two Americans and an Indonesian. Fourteen others including six Americans were injured in the attack, the bloodiest against foreigners in decades. Officials linked possible involvement to the Free Papua Movement and noted the incident may worsen foreign investment prospects.
