Ranger Killed, Five Others Injured In Bomb Attack In Yala

YALA (Thailand), April 29 (Bernama) -- A 20kg homemade bomb exploded at the Yaha district in Yala on Thursday morning, killing a ranger and injuring five others. The bomb went off when the ranger was building a house for the poor in local area of Kampung Baruh about 7.50am, resulting in the destruction of the house, as well. According to the 47th Ranger head, Col Tanuwat Pisansit, the bomb attack was believed to have been fuelled by revenge over an arrest in the village, two days ago. Meanwhile, security forces in southern Thailand have tightened security measures following the 12th anniversary of the Krisek Mosque tragedy in Pattani province in which 32 people were killed. --BERNAMA
