Two small explosions hit Thai capital

Two small explosions hit Bangkok on Saturday night, after thousands of protesters held a march in the Thai capital.

The day-long procession was the latest attempt to garner support for their mission to oust the government, which they see as illegitimate.

At least one person was wounded by the blast which happened near the Defence Ministry. Police said the device was a grenade.

The other explosion took place at the offices of the country's Anti-Corruption Commission. It caused minor damage.
