As ISIS claims responsibility for the sickening terror attack in Indonesia today, footage of one of the killers detonating their suicide bombs has emerged online.

Attackers carried out the gun rampage and suicide bomb attacks in Jakarta this morning.

The video shows two of the attackers crouched behind a low wall near a Starbucks coffee shop. It appears they are pinned down by armed police officers.

Two other men are seen lying a short distance away from them in a pool of blood.

One of the men is sat on the floor and appears despondent, with his hands on his legs and head down.

He reaches to his side and suddenly a plume of orange fire is seen, in scenes too shocking to show.

Aamaaq, a propaganda agency linked to ISIS , said: "Islamic State fighters carried out an armed attack this morning targeting foreign nationals and the security forces charged with protecting them in the Indonesian capital."

Jakarta police chief Tito Karnavian also said the so-called Islamic State group was "definitely" behind the attack.

He claimed Indonesian Bahrun Naim, who is believed to be fighting with IS in Syria, has been "planning this for a while".

At least seven people were killed, police said, in an attack on a country that Islamic State had threatened to put in its "spotlight".

Officers said five attackers and two other people were killed in the brazen attacks, which came after police warnings in recent weeks that Islamic militants were planning something big.

It was the first major violence in the city since the 2009 bombings of two hotels that killed seven people and injured more than 50. Before that, a bombing in a nightclub on the resort island of Bali in 2002 killed 202 people, mostly foreigners.

"This act is clearly aimed at disturbing public order and spreading terror among people," President Joko Widodo said in a statement on television.

"The state, the nation and the people should not be afraid of, and lose to, such terror acts," he said.

The Foreign Office has warned British nationals in Indonesia to "maintain vigilance" after a series of terror attacks in the capital Jakarta left at least seven dead.

Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond condemned what he described as "senseless acts of terror" after armed attackers set off explosions in a busy shopping area and fought a series of gun battles with police.

"My thoughts are with the victims and their families. The UK utterly condemns these senseless acts of violence," he said in a statement.

"We will continue to provide support and assistance to the government of Indonesia as they work to defeat those who plan and perpetrate these acts of terror.

"We advise British nationals in Jakarta and elsewhere in Indonesia to maintain vigilance and monitor FCO travel advice, local media and to follow the advice of local security authorities."
