Summary/Abstract |
In the late morning of 17 July 2009, a large vehicle-borne improvised explosive device (VBIED) concealed in a parked Ford Ranger pick-up truck exploded in the district centre of Yaha in Thailand's southern border province of Yala. Composed of an ammonium nitrate-fuel oil (ANFO) mix packed into two cooking gas tanks, the device disintegrated the pick-up and shredded its target, a passing Royal Thai Army (RTA) jeep, killing two soldiers including the deputy commander of the local task force, and wounding four troops and a passing civilian.
