Thailand Coup: Midnight Bangkok Time

without comments

UPDATE:

– CNN reports:

Around the royal palace in Bangkok, four tanks were parked as were a number of armored vehicles and Humvees, CNN’s Dan Rivers reported. Soldiers appeared to be setting up roadblocks and what appeared to be members of the royal guard surrounded the palace.

It was unclear if the soldiers were loyal to the government or to those attempting to seize power. There have been no reports of violence in Bangkok.
