About 200 police and soldiers raided a jungle hideout used by Muslim separatists in Yala, one of the four southernmost provinces where more than 3,000 people have been
killed in a four-year insurgency, police said.

“It’s a major victory as we have eliminated some snipers,” Police Colonel Sompien Ekpanya told Reuters at the scene of the fighting.
