Jakarta blasts painful reminder of 26/11: Clinton

Mumbai, Jul 18 (PTI) US Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton Saturday said the suicide bomb attacks on two hotels
in Jakarta are a "painful reminder" of the Mumbai terror
attacks.

The suicide bomb attacks on two hotels in Jakarta
Friday are the "painful reminder" that the threat is still
very real, she said here.

Clinton was talking to reporters after meeting the
staff of Taj and Oberoi hotels, which came under attack by
terrorists in November last year.

She said the United States will work with India and
Indonesia and other countries to defeat terrorism.

Nine people were killed and 52 others, including an
Indian, were injured when suicide bombers posing as guests
targeted two luxury hotels in Jakarta. PTI SUD
