Dozens of attacks in Thailand’s restive south leave three wounded
Since 2004, a low-level conflict has killed more than 7,000 people as rebels in the Muslim-majority southernmost provinces of Buddhist-majority Thailand battle for more autonomy.
Narathiwat, Thailand - Dozens of coordinated arson and incendiary attacks across Thailand's insurgency-hit south late Saturday resulted in at least three people being wounded and damage to government property, according to the military. Multiple local government offices and several vehicles were targeted in the 51 attacks, reported the military's Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC).
Firefighters responded to put out burning tires on a road and flames inside a 7-Eleven convenience store, while police stopped motorists for security checks, according to footage from local broadcaster Thai PBS.
