- Bomb blast in Bangkok hospital injures 24 people on Monday morning
- Police found traces of a battery and electric wiring used to make the bomb
- Just a week after 50 people were injured in the bombing of a shopping centre
At least 24 people were injured when a bomb exploded in a hospital in Bangkok just a week after a shopping centre was blown up.
The bomb went off in a reception room for retired civil servants at the Phramongkutklao Hospital about 11am on Monday.
Deputy police commissioner Srivara Ransibrahmanakul said pieces of the bomb including traces of a battery and electric wiring were found at the scene.
‘It’s confirmed to be a bomb. We must convene a meeting before saying anything further, but at this time, I can confirm it was a bomb,’ he told reporters.
The explosion was just a week after 50 people were wounded when two bombs were detonated in a shopping centre in Pattani, in Thailand’s south.
It was also the third anniversary of a military coup that brought the ruling military regime to power.
