Six volunteers injured in roadside bomb attack in Pattani

 

Six defence volunteers were injured, three of them in serious condition, in a roadside bomb explosion in Kapor district of Pattani province on Friday.

 

The six injured were among 12 defence volunteers riding on two armour-plated pickup trucks on their way back to base in Mai Kaen district from a training centre in Tambon Tha Sab, Muang district.

 

As the two pickup trucks were approaching a motorcycle with a side car rigged with about 50 kgs of explosives stuffed in a 15-kg gas canister which was parked on the roadside, the two drivers became suspicious and swerved their vehicles toward the other lane of the road in Tambon Nong Hoi, Kapor district.

Yes, now that the floods are over they can start killing those who helped them, sad.

Attacks never stopped.

What has long ceased to happen is the lack of good faith military-led peace talks and ineffective security.
