| A series of drive-by shootings and bombings killed three people and wounded 17 in Thailand's restive Muslim south, police said on Thursday. Unknown assailants shot dead and burned the bodies of a Buddhist couple who were riding to work on a motorcycle on Thursday morning in Pattani province, police said. A Buddhist family of three, including a 12-year-old girl, were wounded in another drive-by attack in the same province. On Wednesday, a group of government electricians were ambushed as they worked on electrical wiring along a road, also in Pattani. One was killed and four others wounded. A bomb was later detonated outside a tea shop in the same province, wounding four civilians, and in neighbouring Yala a bomb exploded outside an open-air market, wounding three soldiers and three civilians. |
