LAHAD DATU: Fighter jets have started to be flown in and explosions are heard possibly from Kampung Tanduo where followers of Sultan of Sulu have been holed up for about three weeks.

The jets were heard from 7am and the sound of explosions lasted for about half an hour.

Vibrations could be felt right up to the Felda Residence Sahabat, about 20 kilometres from the targeted village.

Police officials are expected to call for press conference at 9.30am.
