China strongly condemns the explosion that occurred in Jakarta of Indonesia, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan said Tuesday.

Kong made the remark in response to a question regarding an explosion Tuesday afternoon at a five-star hotel in the embassy district of Jakarta, which resulted in at least 10 deaths and nearly 100 injuries.

Kong said the Chinese government objects to terrorism in any form. China strongly condemns the bombing in Jakarta and extends its condolences to the victims and their families, the spokesman added.
