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.

Officials in Russia and Ukraine have both reported deaths and injuries following attacks.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said the country’s military had hit two Russian oil refineries in “long-range” attacks.

Russia’s Yaroslav region has counted four injured in an attack on the Slavneft-Yanos oil refinery after huge clouds of smoke were seen over the city.

Russia’s regional governor in Yaroslavl called it the “largest ever attack by enemy drones”, saying 93 drones had been destroyed, but oil storage tanks had been hit by falling debris.

Across Russia, the military said it had intercepted and destroyed 605 Ukrainian drones in multiple regions, including Yaroslavl.

In Ukraine, officials said three people had been killed in a Russian drone attack on a residential area.

Battle in the Black Sea – Russia and Ukraine intensify attacks on shipping | BBC News

Published

on



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.
