Numerous bombs in the South after Hua Hin blasts
A string of explosions rocked southern provinces as the nation celebrated Her Majesty the Queen’s birthday. The blasts on August 5 came just hours after one person was killed and nearly 20 injured, including foreign tourists, by two explosions in Hua Hin, Thailand on the night of August 4. All of the bombs were reportedly detonated by mobile phone signals. Explosive Ordinance Detachments and forensic teams were investigating the types of bombs and trying to determine motive. The wounded people in Hua Hin from the night bombs were three Germans, three Italians, an Austrian and three Dutch nationals, according to a report by the Thai PBS TV channel.
