Dozens of people have been injured in a double bombing, believed to have been set off by Muslim separatists, in front of a supermarket in Thailand. The blasts happened in the southern city of Pattani in the latest attack in the predominantly Buddhist country. The latest attack happened at around 2pm local time, with two bombs going off in quick succession outside a supermarket near the city centre. "The first bomb was small and no one was hurt but the second bomb was huge - I don't know yet whether it's a car bomb or not," Captain Preecha Prachumchai of Pattani provincial police told AFP. "Currently around 40 people have been wounded: one is in serious condition," he said. A decades-old separatist insurgency in the largely ethnic Malay Muslim provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat has killed more than 6,500 people since 2004, according to independent monitoring group Deep South Watch.
