A series of bomb blasts in four districts of Yala province overnight caused minor damage and injured seven people.
Authorities were quick to reject any link with the Barisan Revolusi Nasional (BRN) movement's demand for the release of suspects in security cases in the three southernmost provinces as a condition for peace talks.
Deputy army chief Nattapol Nakpanich, also assistant director of the Internal Security Operations Command, said on Wednesday the attacks had no special significance or important implications.
In response to media questions about the frequency of insurgency bombings in the region, he gave an assurance that Isoc's Region 4 Forward Command, which is in charge of security across the deep South, was working at full capacity to ensure the safety of the lives and property of the people.
In Bangkok, Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwon also insisted the attacks had nothing to do with the BRN's demands.
The Yala attacks were also not linked to the bombings in Bangkok, according to Gen Prawit.
