Dozens were hurt when a truck bomb exploded at the front door of Pattani Big C, but the toll could have been far greater and more deadly. The shopping centre was also the target of a bomb blast in 2005 and an arson attack in 2012. About 10 minutes after the first blast, a second bomb blast occurred outside the building, damaging the structure and causing a fire. Moment of detonation: Another accidental video shows shoppers walking to the store as the truck bomb explodes. After the blasts, security checkpoints were set up along all the routes around Pattani to look for suspects involved in the bomb attack.
