Three people have been arrested in the stabbings of two Chinese nationals and an Australian, according to The Associated Press.

The attacks took place on Hulhumale Island, near the capital Male. The victims are in stable condition.

The government has promised to beef up security in the Indian Ocean nation known for its over water bungalows and luxurious resorts.

Police also are investigating the authenticity of a video circulated on social media in which a masked man claimed responsibility for the attacks, according to the report.

This is not the first disturbing incident in the country of 400,000 people, who live on more than 200 islands, which boasts tourism as its largest industry.

While the island nation has always held itself up as a bucket list dream vacation destination, the Maldives adheres to sharia law and has been referred to as a “hotbed” of extremism.
