PATTANI – Arsonists destroyed much of the stockpile of solar panels at a solar farm operated by Gunkul Solar Power Generation Co in Yaring district of this southern border province early Monday morning.
The Internal Security Operations Command (Isoc) said the attackers entered through the rear of the solar farm in Ban Tha Phong, tambon Taloh Kapore, at 3.45am. They set fire to the solar panel storage area. There were no casualties.
The area was later cordoned off while a bomb disposal team searched the site. They reported it was clean and investigators could begin their collection of evidence.
Isoc said the arsonists not only damaged property but also development opportunities for local people.
It was the second attack on a power generation facility in Pattani in a week. On June 9, intruders set and detonated bombs at the biomass power plant of Pattani Green Co in Nong Chik district. There were no casualties.
