Burma-based Democratic Karen Buddhist Army (DKBA) attacked a Thai border village this past weekend. It looks like their were after the head of the village Mr. Boonlert because last time they try to kill him he fled. This time they tried to fire grenades when then had come in on Thai territory. Tree defence volunteers got small injuries but nobody died.
The Thai army has sent a strong protest to the Burmese government. The Thai army is stepping up the security along the Thai – Burmese border to protect its citizens.
