The State Railway of Thailand (SRT) has temporarily suspended train services to the three southernmost provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat following a huge bomb explosion which tore apart a train carriage in Pattani, killing one railway official and wounding three other people.

The latest bomb blast which, this time, targeted a carriage of the Su-ngai Kolok-Hat Yai train took place in Kok Pho district of Pattani late Saturday afternoon.
