Medan Bombing, Planned Bali Terror Act, Women\'s Network

Indonesia was again rocked by a suicide bomb in an attack on Medan Police headquarters in North Sumatra on Wednesday, 13 Nov. 2019.

The suicide attack was a bold move, because it targeted a facility that was supposed to be safe, where many police officers were on duty to provide security for the civilians who were at the office.

Targeting police stations for a bombing attack is not new. A changing trend in terror targets has been occurring since 2009, from far enemies (foreigners; groups, communities and other symbols of capitalism) to near enemies (military, police, government).
