hua hin thailand
At least one person has been killed and 11 more injured, including foreigners, as two explosions rocked the tourist hotspot of Hua Hin in Thailand, according to local media reports.

The bombs were hidden in plant pots, some reports suggest, while others claim these were motorbike explosions. A woman selling street food died in the attacks, according to a witness on Twitter.

The blasts took place at night in the resort town, which is located nearly 200km from the capital of Bangkok. Several foreign citizens are believed to be among the injured.

"We heard a huge blast and suddenly all the bars around us had to shut down their shutters and everyone was evacuated. I heard there was another explosion. I think there is a total of four explosions in Thailand today," Shane Brett, an eyewitness who was at the center of Hua Hin at the moment of the explosion told RT.

The second explosion was less powerful than the first one that killed one woman, he said. He also confirmed that there were many people lying on the ground and needing treatment.

A BBC reporter has tweeted that one person was killed while 10 others were injured in the twin explosions.
