Thailand Floods Affect 26 Provinces and 1.17 Million Homes

The floods in Thailand have affected 3.26 million people, with the death toll rising to 31, including four fatalities in Bangkok. The floods are attributed to heavy rainfall and water flowing from northern areas, leading to water accumulation and forecasts of further rain. Thai authorities have issued flood warnings for areas along the Chao Phraya River and several southern provinces, prompting authorities to advise motorists to avoid certain flooded roads in Bangkok.

Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has warned of the possibility of heavy rainfall in large parts of the south during the coming week. The flooding continues in Bangkok and 27 other provinces, including Phetchabun, Nakhon Sawan, Lopburi, Kanchanaburi, Suphan Buri, Ayutthaya, Ratchaburi, Phetchaburi, Nakhon Nayok, Prachin Buri, Chon Buri, Rayong, Chanthaburi, Buriram, Chaiyaphum, and Surin.
