Cairo. Islamic State claimed responsibility for the Kampung Melayu bus station attacks in Jakarta that left at least three policemen dead and 12 others wounded on Wednesday (24/05).
"The executor of the attack on the Indonesian police gathering in Jakarta was an Islamic State fighter," the militant group's news agency Amaq said.
