A suspected car bomb went off outside a small hotel in the coastal resort of Pattani in Thailand, near the border with Malaysia. At least one person is dead, and 29 are injured, according to media reports. Authorities attempt to establish the nationality of the victims.
Photos from location show a gaping hall in the wall of the Southern Hotel, with a fire raging inside. In a video on social media, debris are scattered around the lightweight building, as rescue workers and civilians scuttle around.
While the nationality of the victims has not been revealed, the hotel is known to be popular with foreign tourists.
At least 29 people were injured as result of the blast, Daily Mail reports.
The interiors of the hotel have apparently been seriously damaged as seen on the hotel’s guest photo page surfaced on the social media, showing a room covered with debris.
The attack comes in the wake of a wave of explosions set off by homemade devices that rocked locations across the South-East Asian country earlier this month, killing four people. Most took place in the restive Muslim-dominated regions in the south of the country, which include Pattani. An increasingly radical separatist Islamic insurgency in the south of the country has reportedly claimed over 6,000 lives since the turn of the millenniu
