Bombing Thailand's south kills 3, including 4-year-old girl

None

BANGKOK- A bomb exploded outside a school in southern Thailand on Tuesday, killing three people, including a man and his 4-year-old daughter, whom he was dropping off for kindergarten.

 

The incident was the latest in a series of attacks that coincide with efforts to hold peace talks between Thailand's government and Muslim separatist insurgents who have wreaked havoc across the country's southernmost provinces since 2004, at a cost of more than 6,000 lives.

 

Other recent attacks have included bombings across seven provinces popular with tourists that killed four people, and an explosive detonated on a rail line that derailed a train car and killed a railway worker.
