East Timor President Jose Ramos-Horta has had emergency surgery at an Australian military base in the capital, Dili, after being shot twice during an attack on his home by rebels, a presidential adviser said today.
Rebel leader Alfredo Reinado was shot and killed in the attack, said Deputy Prime Minister Jose Luis Guterres and an army spokesman.
The home of Timorese Prime Minister Xanana Gusmao was also shot at early today, a witness said, suggesting this was a half-baked coup attempt.
