BANGKOK, Feb 7 –Two M-79 grenades were fired at the anti-government protest site at Chaeng Wattana, damaging a medical service station and a makeshift bathroom tent but no injuries were reported.
The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA)’s Erawan Medical Centre reported bomb-like sounds were heard twice at the medical service tent at the protest site at the Government Complex around 8.30pm last night.
