Red Shirt Rally Day 63: Tensions Rising

The government has withdrawn its reconciliation plan which included promised polls in November when the Red Shirt protesters made counter-demands and refused to leave the protest site. The tensions worsened tonight when Maj. Gen. Khattiya Sawatdipon, known as Seh Daeng, the Red Shirts' security advisor, was shot by a sniper. The government has labeled him a terrorist but the army denies it ordered an assassination.

Assassination is never the solution.
