There are at least 7 bombs blasted in various area of the city.

Police say they have received a warning purportedly from Islamic State in late December

about a "possible incident that could cause international news", according to a Channel NewsAsia reporter.

DEAR GOD

World War 3 is coming

This is just a terrorist attack and while yes it's a tragedy it is NOT WW3. A world war simply cannot break out unless the superpowers declare war on eachother. Right now we're in an unprecedented age of peace between all of them.

I don't think it's been confirmed to be ISIL yet. I wouldn't jump to conclusions just becuase they're the name most in the media.

Some sources are saying there were some suicide bombers:

"At least three suicide bombers exploded themselves in a Starbucks cafe in downtown Jakarta on Thursday while two gunmen attacked a police post nearby, a witness told The Associated Press."

Although some of the bombs can be seen as non-suicide bombers. 

Also I read this was close to a UN office.
