Eight drug smugglers - including seven foreigners - executed in Indonesia went to their deaths singing hymns and praying.
The men were put to death in a jungle clearing near the prison on the island of Nusakambangan in Central Java.
Family members held a vigil nearby and heard the shots as the two Australians, four Nigerians, a Brazilian and an Indonesian were killed.
"The good thing is all prisoners were executed together while praying and singing," Christina Widiantarti, a lawyer for the Brazilian convict and a witness to the execution, said.
"Before that they hugged each other, saying goodbye." They all reportedly refused to wear blindfolds.
Australia and Brazil both condemned the refusal to heed last-ditch pleas to save their nationals, but Indonesia's attorney-general insisted it was part of the "war" on drugs.
Muhammad Prasetyo said: "We are fighting a war against horrible drug crimes that threaten our nation's survival."
It reflects the hard line on enforcing the death penalty adopted by Indonesian President Joko Widodo when he came to office last July, damaging diplomatic relations with several countries.
One prisoner, Filipina housemaid Mary Jane Veloso, was spared at the last minute.
She was arrested in 2010 after she arrived in Indonesia with 2.6 kg of heroin, but will now be allowed to give evidence after a woman suspected of planting the drugs gave herself up to police in the Philippines on Tuesday.
Australia recalls its ambassador
Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said the execution of his countrymen, Myuran Sukumaran and Andrew Chan, would have an effect on the countries' relationship.
"We respect Indonesia's sovereignty but we do deplore what's been done and this cannot be simply business as usual."
"I want to stress that this is a very important relationship between Australia and Indonesia but it has suffered as a result of what's been done over the last few hours."
He confirmed Australia was recalling its ambassador to Jakarta, a step already taken by Brazil over the execution of another prisoner in January. The South American country is now considering what further action it will take.
Australia has deep commercial and political ties with its neighbouring country, but has said the executions would not affect trade relations. Brazil is also thought to be wary of risking valuable defence contracts.
The United Nations described the executions as "extremely regrettable, extremely sad" and reiterated its appeal for Indonesia to reinstate its moratorium on the death penalty.
