At least nine people were killed and 40 wounded on Sunday in bomb attacks, including a suicide attack, against churches in Surabaya, Indonesia, the most populous Muslim country in the world, police said.<\/p>\n
The three attacks were carried out in three different places at ten minutes intervals, the first explosion occurred at 07:30 (00:30 GMT), said the police of Surabaya, Indonesia’s second largest city, in the east of island of Java.<\/p>\n
These unpretentious attacks, which took place in three different places ten minutes apart, come just days before the start of Ramadan in Southeast Asia, a country that has been on the alert after attacks in recent years, some by the terrorist group of ISIS.<\/p>\n
Religious intolerance has increased in recent years in Indonesia, a country of 260 million inhabitants, nearly 90% of whom are of Muslim faith, but who also include minorities such as Christians, Hindus and Buddhists.<\/p>\n
