Historic Flood Disaster: Thailand And South East Asia Battles Unprecedented Rains

Описание: Record-breaking floods have plunged large parts of Thailand into crisis, killing at least 33 people and affecting more than two million residents across 10 southern provinces. The city of Hat Yai, a major commercial hub bordering Malaysia, witnessed its heaviest rainfall in 300 years, receiving a staggering 335mm in just one day. Homes, vehicles, and entire neighbourhoods remain submerged, with thousands desperately awaiting rescue on rooftops as communications break down and roads disappear under rising waters.

The crisis is overwhelming emergency services. Volunteer groups say they have received thousands of distress calls, with many people trapped for days without food, clean water, or medical assistance. Viral footage showing three young boys hanging from power lines to escape the rising floodwaters has shocked the region.

The Thai military has stepped in with an unprecedented mobilisation: deploying an aircraft carrier, 14 ships, helicopters, field kitchens, and medical units capable of converting the vessel into a floating hospital. High-clearance vehicles, boats, and jet skis are being used to reach stranded communities, while the cabinet has declared Songkhla province a disaster zone to free up funds.

Neighbouring countries are battling similar devastation. Vietnam has recorded 98 deaths within a week, Malaysia has evacuated over 19,000 people, and Indonesia faces deadly landslides in North Sumatra.

As Southeast Asia confronts what may be one of its worst monsoon disasters in recent memory, millions remain vulnerable, cut off, and waiting for help amid relentless rain.
