History

[edit]

On 26 May 1962, the embassy was attacked with plastic explosives placed on a windowsill on the ground floor of the embassy.[1]

On 8 October 2004, a bomb exploded in front of the embassy, slightly injuring ten people. The Armed French Islamic Front [fr] claimed the attack.[2]

In the morning of 21 March 2012, a letter bomb exploded in front of the embassy without injuring anyone, but caused serious damage to cars and windows within a fifty metre radius.[3]

Consulates

As well as its embassy in Paris, Indonesia has two consulates in Marseille, Bouches-du-Rhône and in Nouméa, New Caledonia.[4]
