Two killed by car bomb in southern Thailand, police say.
A car bomb has killed at least two people and injured 36 outside a hotel in southern Thailand, police say.
This is the latest deadly attack in the area that has been plagued by separatist violence for the past decade.
Thailand is predominantly Buddhist but parts of the south, in particular the three provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat, are majority Muslim and resistance to central government rule has existed in the regions for decades.
Police say the bomb was left in a vehicle about 50 metres from a hotel in the town of Betong, which is popular with tourists from nearby Malaysia.
At least one of the injured was Malaysian.
