A 14-year-old student is believed to have carried out one of Thailand's deadliest school shootings, killing nine people and injuring at least 22 others at Debsirin Nonthaburi School on Friday. The incident began around 10:00 on August 7, with the suspect, whose grandparents were also found dead, reportedly shooting himself before police arrived.
The handgun used was legally registered to the suspect's grandfather, a retired teacher. The motive remains under investigation, but authorities suspect academic stress and previous research into mass shootings may have influenced the attacker. Survivors described the chaos and their quick reactions, while teachers and relatives shared their emotional reactions to the incident.
