Nakhon Ratchasima’s municipal area submerged for second time in less than a month
13 Sept 10:55Key points summarised by AI
Nakhon Ratchasima's municipal area experiences its second major flood in under a month, caused by overflowing Lam Takhong River and district runoff.
Crucial bypass roads are submerged, forcing drivers to seek alternative routes to navigate the north-eastern provinces.
Emergency teams are evacuating residents and fortifying Maharat Nakhin Ratchasima Hospital with flood defenses and pumps.
The governor attributes the severe flooding to heavy rains from Kompasu storm and a disabled sluice gate unable to divert excess water.
