    In Yala, one of the three southernmost border provinces in the kingdom, an explosion occurred at 1:30 p.m. Monday on a college campus where a football was held. Four soldiers were seriously injured in the blast.

    The bomb, planted in the area where the military vehicles were parked, was triggered by remote control, said the source.

    The foot match was organized by local authorities in a bid to develop good relations with Muslim residents in 75 villages of the province.

    On Sunday night, three explosions went off in Hat Yai town of the southern Songkhla province, killing two people and injuring dozens.

    Prime Minister Thaksin Shinwatra on Monday condemned the attacks, saying those assailants don't care about innocent people's lives and the government's efforts to restore peace to the deep South.

    More than 700 people have been killed in Thailand's restive South since violence was flared up January last year. Thai government blamed separatist activities as the root for the unabated violence. Enditem
