Two bombs injure five in southern Thailand
2014-11-11
A civilian and four rangers were wounded in a couple of bombings yesterday in Narathiwat and Pattani provinces.

In Narathiwat, one local resident was injured. Police said they found a white cloth hanging on a tree with a message in Thai reading "Sovereign State of Pattani" near the site where the bomb exploded.

The injured resident, Ayub Asay, was wounded by shrapnel in his legs and was taken to a nearby hospital by a passer-by. The passer-by said that Ayub had gone to the area to clear grass when the white cloth attracted his attention. He went closer and stepped on the bomb, which was buried underground. Police said they believe insurgents are responsible for the attack.

Another bomb went off in Pattani in the late afternoon. Four rangers, who were on a teacher protection detail, were wounded.
