Blasts hurt 62 in Thailand
Posted: 01:59 AM ET
BANGKOK, Thailand (CNN) — Two near-simultaneous explosions in insurgency-hit southern Thailand wounded 62 people Tuesday, police said.
A car bomb blast ripped through a fruit market in the Sukhirin district of Narathiwat, a predominantly Muslim province along the Thailand-Malaysia border.
Two minutes later, another explosion took place near a tea shop, police said.
The blasts occurred a week after Thailand’s new prime minister, Somchai Wongsawat, visited the violence-plagued region.
This area is a good 18 hour drive from Bangkok so I'm not concerned about my safety but please keep those that were injured close to your hearts and minds.
