PALU, Indonesia—Indonesian security forces on Sunday killed two suspected terrorists with ties to the ISIS terrorist group who were believed to be connected to the killing of Christian farmers on Sulawesi island, the country’s military said.
The two men, identified as Rukli and Ahmad Gazali, were fatally shot during a pre-dawn raid by a five-man team of military and police in Central Sulawesi province’s mountainous Parigi Moutong district, said Maj. Gen. Richard Tampubolon, who heads the joint operation. Parigi Moutong borders Poso district, considered an extremist hotbed in the province.
