CEOAFRICA gathered that a double bomb attack injured 10 people, with almost half of them journalists in Thailand’s restive south on Saturday.

According to source, an initial explosion early Saturday in Narathiwat, one of several insurgency-prone provinces, apparently targeted an army patrol injuring six military personnel. Three of the army personnel injured were said to be in a critical condition.

Source said that Journalists who rushed to the scene were standing at a distance from the original bomb site, when the second device exploded near them.

Almost a decade of conflict has left more than 5,700 people dead in the Thai south.
