Southern Thailand insurgency
Religiously motivated armed conflict since 2004
The Southern Thailand insurgency is an ongoing conflict centered in southern Thailand. It originated in 1948 as a separatist insurgency in the historical Malay Patani Region, made up of the three southernmost provinces of Thailand and parts of a fourth, but has become more complex and increasingly violent since the early 2000s from drug cartels, oil smuggling networks, and sometimes pirate raids.
