Anti-terror arrests in Indonesia

SOLO: Anti-terror police stand guard on the street as they raid a house in Solo, Indonesia.

They arrested 10 Islamic militants and seized homemade bombs from a group suspected of planning suicide attacks against security forces and the government.

Since March, more than 30 such suspects have been arrested and seven others killed in anti-terror raids in the country. All were believed to have been plotting attacks, and some attended a military-style training camp. Nine of the latest suspects were arrested in Solo and the 10th in West Kalimantan on the island of Borneo.
