The Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.5 percent to 2,801.33, and Tokyo's Nikkei 225 tumbled 1.2 percent to 20,433.65. Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell 1.2 percent to 25,524.86.

Beijing's use of the term terrorism "triggered a wave of risk aversion across global markets," said Stephen Innes of VM Markets in a report.
