Old militants with new brand behind Jakarta attack
The Jakarta assault shows possible regrouping of IS linked militants in Indonesia. A daylight attack on a Starbucks and a traffic police post left two civilians and five attackers dead, with about 20 injured. Police tie the operation to Bahrun Naim and IS, noting low-tech methods and a rebranding of al Qaida linked networks. The event raises Southeast Asian safety concerns as nations boost counterterrorism and intelligence sharing.
