Suspected Muslim insurgents kill 2 health workers in restive southern Thailand

PATTANI, Thailand: Suspected Muslim insurgents shot and killed two government health workers Wednesday in violence-plagued southern Thailand, police said.

At least six gunmen stormed a public health clinic in Pattani province's Yarang district and opened fire, killing two health workers who were sitting at their desks, said police Col. Vichai In-tawong.

The assailants also burnt the victims' desks before fleeing the scene, he said.

"They were targeting government officials as a symbolic attack on the state," Vichai said.

More than 2,400 people have been killed in the predominantly Muslim provinces of Yala, Pattani and Narathiwat and some parts of Songkhla since early 2004, when a separatist movement flared after a lull of more than two decades.


Along with attacks on soldiers and police, insurgents have targeted Buddhist civilians and government workers in what is believed to be an attempt to drive them from the area.

The insurgents also target Muslims seen as collaborators of the government, including Muslim soldiers, police, informants and civilians.
