Three killed, two wounded in southern Thailand
Terrorists Suspected militants shot dead two Muslims and a Buddhist and wounded two other men in a fresh series of gun attacks in Thailand's troubled south on Wednesday, police said.
A 45-year-old Muslim villager was killed instantly when two men on a motorcycle opened fire as he rode his motorbike home from a mosque in the province of Pattani. In a similar attack in Pattani, terrorists suspected militants shot the assistant to a village leader, a 47-year-old Muslim man, as he rode home from a market. He later died of his injuries.
A 47-year-old former government volunteer was also shot dead by two gunmen at a bird singing competition in Pattani.
At least three terrorists suspected militants in neighbouring Yala province hid by a roadside and fired at a car carrying a 35-year-old Buddhist soldier and a 39-year-old village leader, wounding them both.
