Amnesty: Most casualties in Thai south civilian (AP)

BANGKOK ? Amnesty International is calling on Muslim guerrillas in Thailand's southern border provinces to stop targeting civilians.

The London-based rights group says that noncombatants have accounted for two-thirds of the nearly 5,000 people killed since insurgents took up arms in 2004.

Bomb blasts or shootings are reported every few days in the far south, and the London-based rights group says many of the attacks constitute war crimes that should be prosecuted under international law.

Most of the violence has taken place in three southern provinces dominated by ethnic Malay Muslims who are a minority in the mostly Buddhist nation.

Amnesty said in report Tuesday that at least 4,766 people have died and 7,808 have been wounded in the conflict.
