Australian Governor-General Michael Jeffery said on Sunday that he was appalled by Saturday's fatal bombings in Indonesia's resort island of Bali and condemned the attack against innocent people.

He said in a statement that "Those responsible are to be condemned for their senseless, cruel and inhumane actions."

At least 25 people were killed and about 100 injured in a number of bomb blasts in areas of Kuta and Jimbaran in Bali. Three Australians are reportedly dead.

"I know I speak for all Australians when I say that we stand with the government and people of Indonesia in their time of need, just as we did following the terrorist attacks just three years ago in Bali, and in the aftermath of the tsunami," he said.

He extended his heartfelt sympathies and prayers to the families of those killed, wherever they were from .
