Chachoengsao — On October 7, 2026, floodwaters in the Bang Khla district remain at a dangerously high level, with homes potentially disappearing up to their roofs. Reporter visits to the area revealed that some residents had chosen to stay, despite evacuation orders. Residents are using foam pieces as makeshift rafts to navigate the flooded landscape.
The flooding has swept away shrimp and fish raised by locals, leaving them devastated. No one in the community had faced such severe flooding before, according to residents. While rescue workers from multiple agencies have provided assistance and delivered food, they continue to monitor water levels closely to prevent further rises.
