Bombings and arson in southern Thailand
2009-05-27
Bombings and arson incidents occurred in several locations in Thailand's southernmost province of Yala causing damages but no casualties.

The bombs exploded at three locations in the provincial seat--the first damaging an automobile billboard on the Yala-Ban Neang Road; the second at a Kasikorn Bank's ATM booth and the third near the Yala Rama Hotel. Cars parked near the three locations were damaged as their windows were shattered because of the power of the explosions.

Arson, by terrorists presumed insurgents, also occurred near the bombing locations: at a warehouse of a construction company on Yala-Ban Neang Road, a furniture showroom in Muang Mai Market and another warehouse near the Yala Rama Hotel. Firefighters contained the resultant fires at two locations except for the construction companyÂ’s warehouse, as building materials stored there fueled the fire.
