At least seven people have died after a teenage boy allegedly shot his grandparents and some teachers at a school in Nonthaburi on the outskirts of Thailand’s capital Bangkok.

The 14-year-old suspected shooter is also dead, authorities say.

More than 30 people have been injured with nine of them “severely injured”, according to Thailand’s prime minister Anutin Charnvirakul.

This is the second school shooting in Thailand this year – despite restrictions on ownership, people can acquire guns here with relative ease.

Russia has been ramping up its efforts to strangle Ukraine’s commercial links to the outside world, by launching waves of attacks along the country’s Black Sea coastline.

While there have been Russian attacks on international vessels before, they’ve never been so numerous or so deadly. Ukraine’s port administration says there were 57 Russian attacks on civilian vessels last month. Ukraine’s once bustling ports – such as Odesa, Chornomorsk, and Pivdennyi – are almost devoid of ships.

Ukraine is also targeting shipping in the war, with recent, highly successful attacks on Russian vessels, including sanctioned tankers carrying oil, as well as ships involved in carrying supplies to Russian-occupied Crimea.

Using its own drones, Ukraine has struck around 200 Russian vessels, bringing traffic in the strategic Sea of Azov to a virtual standstill.

Russia has attacked Ukraine with ballistic missiles and drones, killing at least 17 people, as Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said interceptors “could have saved lives”.

In one of the deadliest strikes across Kyiv this year – which started after midnight on Wednesday – at least 44 people were injured after residential buildings, a railway station and warehouses were hit, Zelensky said.

The Russia defence ministry said it had struck logistics hubs and supply centres in Kyiv and the surrounding region.
