On Sunday, March 28, two suicide bombers from Jema’ah Ansharut Daulah (JAD), an Indonesian pro-Islamic State (IS) terrorist organization, detonated pressure cooker IEDs in front of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral in Makassar, South Sulawesi. The blast resulted in the death of the two perpetrators, Lukman and Yogi, and injured 20 people. The attack marked the 552nd terrorist attack in Indonesia between 2000 and 2021, and the most lethal JAD attack since the Surabaya triple bombing in 2018.
