Armed insurgents stormed the Global House store in Pattani's Muang district on Saturday evening, evacuated staff and customers, and set off three bombs. No deaths or injuries were reported. A fourth, larger bomb in a gas-cylinder sidecar was defused after two hours. Police say the attack was meant to stir unrest before planned peace talks in Malaysia. For businesses in the far south, expect heightened security checks, possible road closures, and disrupted trade and customer traffic around these talks.
