17 JANUARY 2014 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: An anti-government protestor takes a break while searching for assailants who threw small IEDs at them during a protest march in Bangkok. The attackers were not found but officials claim to have found a weapons cache in an abandoned building nearby. Friday was day 5 of the anti-government Shutdown Bangkok protests. The protest, led by the People's Democratic Reform Committee, is calling for the suspension of elections pending political reform in Thailand. There was violence at several sites in Bangkok Friday, including running battles between government opponents and supporters at one site and an IED attack by unknown assailants on anti-government protestors at another site.
