BEIJING, Sept. 18 (Xinhuanet) -- Two people have been killed and 14 others injured...after a bomb concealed in a motorcycle detonated outside a temple in Thailand's southernmost province.
The explosive was one of five that went off on late Thursday evening in a district of Narathiwat. Soldiers were among the dead and wounded. There was no claim of responsibility, though police believe the attacks were carried out by ethnic Malay separatists. Three unexploded devices were later discovered at the site.
More than 6,500 people have been killed in unrest since 2004 in Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat bordering Malaysia, an area that was part of a Malay Muslim sultanate before it was annexed by Thailand over a century ago.
