BANGKOK — A large explosion in front of Bangkok's Erawan shrine injured at least 10 people at around 7pm tonight.
Photos from the scene show blood and bodies laying on the ground as rescue workers rush to provide aid. In images tweeted by JS 100 radio just after the blast, fires were burning in Sukhumvit Road before the local landmark, which is heavily frequented by Thais and tourists alike.
One of those injured is believed to be a foreign national, according to Thai Rath TV.
Photos from the scene appear to show an injured Caucasian woman being taken away on a stretcher.
There is no indication yet of what caused the explosion during rush hour. Roads around Rajaprasong Intersection have been closed.
