A bomb has exploded close to a shrine in the centre of the
Thai capital, Bangkok, police say.
Local reports suggest at least 12 people have died and
dozens have been injured.
The BBC's Jonathan Head, who is at the scene, says there is
a huge amount of chaos, with body parts scattered everywhere.
The attack took place close to the Erawan Shrine in the
capital's central Chidlom district.
Our correspondent says this a very well known shrine in the
centre of Bangkok, next to a five-star hotel.
He says people around the shrine were hit by the full force
of the blast. (
