Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has announced deployment of additional boats and trucks to aid evacuation in Songkhla, where catastrophic flooding from a "once in 300 years" storm has claimed at least 19 lives and affected over two million people. The Thai military, the irrigation department, and the Navy are conducting large-scale rescue and relief operations, including using the aircraft carrier HTMS Chakri Naruebet for aid distribution and evacuations in Hat Yai. Severe flooding has submerged homes and roads, forced thousands to evacuate, and caused widespread disruptions, with fatalities reported by the public health ministry from electrocution and flood-related accidents.
