Earlier, Thai police reported one person was killed and 30 others were injured when two bombs set off near a hotel in the southern coastal town of Pattani on August 23. The first blast in a parking lot at the back of the Southern View Hotel caused no causalities. The second explosion at the hotel’s entrance killed one and injured 30 others.
The blasts came less than two weeks after a series of explosions hit seven southern provinces, killing four people and injuring dozens.
