Authorities in Thailand tightened security in Bangkok as they probed a series of small blasts that hit the city, injuring at least four people.
Some of the explosions were caused by homemade bombs and the incidents could be linked, the police said. Blasts occurred at a government complex, a suburban road, below a downtown metro station and near an army building.
Bangkok is currently hosting the Asean Foreign Ministers’ meeting, with top diplomats including US Secretary of State Michael Pompeo attending. There’s no suggestion any explosions directly targeted the event, which is ringed by tight security.
Thailand’s Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-Ocha said in a Twitter post that he condemns those responsible for the incidents.
“This damages the peacefulness and the image of the country,” he said. “I’ve ordered security officials to ensure the safety of the public and those affected.”
