JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) - Suicide bombers who checked in as guests smuggled explosives into American luxury hotels in Indonesia's capital and set off a pair of blasts Friday that killed eight people and wounded more than 50.
The near-simultaneous bombings ended a four-year lull in terror attacks on civilian, Western targets in the world's most populous Muslim nation.

At least 18 foreigners were among the dead and wounded. Included in the tally were at least eight Americans who sustained injuries, a U.S. official said on condition of anonymity because information from the scene was still incomplete.

Suspicion will fall on the Southeast Asian Islamist militant group Jemaah Islamiyah or its allies. The network is blamed for past attacks in Indonesia, including a 2003 bombing at the Marriott when 12 people died.
