A roadside bomb exploded on the morning of 30 July, in Narathiwat province, injuring six police officers and a local resident. The incident occurred at approximately 08:00 in the village of Jue Rae, Moo 9, Sako Subdistrict, in the troubled Sungai Padi District.

 

The target of the attack was a patrol unit assigned to provide security for teachers travelling in the area, a common practice in Thailand’s southern provinces, where such personnel have been frequent targets of insurgent violence.

 

Two of the injured officers and one civilian sustained shrapnel wounds and were identified as Pol. Sgt. Maj. Masaki Mamu, Pol. Sgt. Maj. Jira Julanil, and Mr. Marodi, a local resident. Four other officers, Sub-Lt. Wuttichai Kongsong, Pol. Sgt. Maj. Mahader Kue-ngo, Pol. Sgt. Chaidy Jehbosu, and Pol. L/Cpl. Mohsen Alitoma, suffered minor injuries including chest tightness, ringing in the ears and abrasions.

 

All seven victims were transported to Sungai Padi Hospital for treatment. Local authorities cordoned off the blast site and launched an investigation into the attack.

 

Officials urged the public to avoid the area and to remain vigilant. Citizens are encouraged to report any suspicious individuals or objects immediately to authorities via the 24-hour hotlines 1341 or 191.

 

The motive behind the attack is currently under investigation, but authorities suspect it is part of the ongoing insurgency in Thailand’s deep south, which has seen sporadic violence over the past two decades.
