Terrorists kill three in southern Thailand
2008-01-04
Suspected terrorist separatist rebels have killed three people in Thailand's Muslim-majority south, police said on Friday, as the region entered the fifth year of a deadly jihad insurgency.

A 57-year-old Muslim man was killed in a drive-by shooting as he travelled to a local mosque in Yala province on Thursday evening, police said, while in a district nearby a 44-year-old Buddhist rubber tapper was also shot dead. In Pattani province earlier the same day, one soldier was killed and three others wounded when a roadside bomb hit their patrol.

Friday marks the fourth anniversary of the jihad rebellion, which erupted when terrorists militants raided an army base in Narathiwat province on January 4, 2004, reviving long-running tensions.
