More bombs rock Thai south
|
[Bangkok Post] Two homemade bombs went off in Narathiwat province on Saturday -- one in Cho Airong and the other in Tak Bai district -- but neither caused any casualties.
The first bomb, which was fashioned out of a fire extinguisher, was buried in a drain underneath a road near Ban Khokin. The improvised explosive device detonated as a pickup truck carrying a team of rangers drove past it on Saturday afternoon. The blast left a crater about one meter deep, but caused no damage to the vehicle, which was travelling on the other side of the road.
On Saturday night, a small bomb went off by a house at Ban Rai village in tambon Che Hae, Tak Bai district. The bomb blew up as two motorcycles carrying four soldiers were passing by. No casualties were reported in the incident. It is believed the bombs were merely intended to cause disturbance, not serious damage or injuries.
The bombs add to the series of of attacks across the far south recently. On January 18, five military rangers were wounded in a blast while patrolling in Sungai Padi's tambon Todeng. Hours later, gunmen killed two monks at Wat Rattananuparb in the same district.
