2016-08-16 |
[The Nation] Two Thai marines were injured in a double bombing targeting their teacher-protection unit in Narathiwat's Bacho district yesterday morning, while small explosives planted at four locations in Tambon Yaha in Yala's Yaha district went off on Sunday night without any casualties. In Bacho, following an early report about two blasts targeting eight soldiers riding four motorcycles, Bacho superintendent Pol Colonel Patta Madawa led a team to inspect the scene. The first bomb hit the motorcycle ridden by team leader and a private, while the second blast - believed to have targeted those responding to the first incident - went off ten minutes later without causing injuries. On Sunday night, a series of small bombings in the Yaha municipality area caused damage to the facades of four shops, and another bomb was defused. |
