The State Railway of Thailand on Sunday issued a warning for passengers to arrive at Sungai Kolok railway station earlier, as heightened security measures in Narathiwat district may cause delays, potentially making them late for their trains.

The attacks resulted in three fatalities and several injuries.

The SRT noted that security forces established more road checkpoints from 7 am on Sunday, with no specified end date for these measures.
