Suspected Muslim insurgents set off a series of bombs as shoppers gathered for lunch Saturday in a commercial hub of Thailand's insurgency-plagued south, killing eight people and wounding dozens, officials said.
Yala Governor Dethrat Simsiri said that 68 people were wounded by three blasts that occurred within a 100-meter (100-yard) radius and minutes apart in Yala city, a main commercial hub of Thailand's restive southern provinces.
