Two brothers face interrogation in a shooting case that erupted during an ordination celebration in Phrayabanlue subdistrict, Ladbualuang district, Ayutthaya province on the night of July 10. The incident resulted in one death and one injury.

Following the shooting, police gathered evidence and obtained arrest warrants from Ayutthaya Provincial Court for Wirojon, 33, and Thani, 27. They are charged with murder, attempted murder, illegal possession and carrying of firearms without permission, and discharging firearms without justification.

Both suspects surrendered to Ladbualuang Police Station on the evening of July 11. They were separated for questioning, and the firearm used in the incident was seized. Gunpowder residue testing and DNA samples were collected for investigation. Investigators opposed bail for both suspects.

As of July 12, 2567, the families, relatives, and lawyers of both suspects arrived at the police station to visit them and prepare bail applications. The suspects' parents declined to give interviews.

Investigators revealed the case remains under investigation with evidence collection ongoing. Both suspects are scheduled to be presented to Ayutthaya Provincial Court for remand on July 13, 2567.

The injured victim, Ms. Ni, 27, was struck by a stray bullet in the right jaw area, with the projectile still embedded in her body. She remains hospitalized at Sena Hospital awaiting surgery to remove the bullet and is unable to provide a statement to investigators.

The Democrat Party (DP) held a parliamentary seminar on July 12, 2026, at the Buri Sri Phu Hotel in Hat Yai under the theme "Clear Southern Skies, Moving Forward Together: Economic Recovery, Security Enhancement, and Quality of Life Improvement." The event was led by party chairman Abhisit Vejjajiva and other senior executives, drawing participation from MPs, party members, academics from four universities, and representatives from business associations, SMEs, and NGOs in the region.

The seminar opened with a video showcasing the severe flooding that struck Hat Yai in late 2025 and reviewed parliamentary relief and recovery efforts. Abhisit outlined four key discussion points: assessing the status of home repairs, credit programs, and compensation; preparing defenses for the upcoming rainy season and emergency budget allocation; developing long-term city planning investments; and gathering private sector proposals for future urban development to mitigate disaster damage and create new economic opportunities.

Songkhla MP Juri Numkaew, a deputy party leader, reported that relief payments have reached most residents, though approximately 1,000 people remain unfunded due to eligibility disputes awaiting appeals resolution. Adisak Rattana, speaking for the public, called on the government to increase relief payments, noting that the 9,000-baht assistance is insufficient. He also highlighted that most local disaster assistance payments have not been distributed since 2567, with some localities claiming no requests were made, indicating that many residents across Songkhla Province remain without aid.

Accomplished actress and host Thanya Thanyanart Engtrrakul posted photos while participating in a planetary blessing ceremony at Sarakhet Rajavoramaha Vihara temple, sharing her feelings about joining the sacred ritual. She wrote: "Today I had the opportunity to participate in this sacred ceremony. I thank all the sponsors who allowed me to join. I wish the merit from this occasion brings happiness, peace of mind, and good health to everyone."

Following the post, numerous entertainment colleagues and fans came to share merit and offer blessings, wishing her continued happiness, prosperity, and the overcoming of obstacles. Many online commenters also referenced previous drama while offering encouragement with remarks such as "Sharing merit with you," "May you only encounter good things and good people," "Breaking the bad planets," "This is how you respond with superior merit," "Beautiful and elegant," and "Truly graceful, beautiful in body and spirit."

Fans have rallied to show support for Thanya, sharing in the merit-making and hoping she encounters only positive things ahead.

A doctor has shared a disturbing case of a patient who developed cystitis due to her company's extreme rule restricting total bathroom time to just 10 minutes per day. Different companies have varying workplace policies depending on their operational context, but all rules must comply with labor laws and social ethics. However, conflicts between corporate policies and employee welfare are not new—many companies exploit loopholes to create rules that disadvantage workers.

Dr. Chutinart Chinudomporn recently posted about a patient dealing with harsh workplace rules. The patient suffered from cystitis and frequently held her bladder because the company banned bathroom visits totaling more than 10 minutes daily. Since her department was five minutes away, the round trip consumed her entire allowance, leaving her too afraid to use the facilities. After the company merged into Thailand's largest telecom operator, such stories became commonplace. A bus company recently prohibited employees from wearing canvas shoes, requiring leather dress shoes instead—resulting in foot pain and blisters, with 500-baht fines for violations. A Japanese-style sushi restaurant required staff to walk continuously without standing still, with supervisors punishing any employee caught stationary. Department store workers face similar restrictions against sitting all day, unable to rest even during quiet periods or meal breaks. Some workers stand for 10+ hours daily, and upon returning home, their legs can barely function.

The post went viral with 2,300 shares and numerous comments. Many people argued that if companies impose such strict rules, they should provide accommodations—for example, if limiting bathroom time to 10 minutes, bathrooms should be located conveniently nearby. Critics noted that Thailand appears to have labor laws only on paper, questioning why basic worker protections remain unenforced.

A touching story has captivated the internet as a dedicated Chinese wife cared for her comatose husband for years. In 2019, Zhao Jinqian, a contract worker, fell approximately six meters from a warehouse roof while protecting a three-year-old child he was rescuing. The child survived unharmed, but Zhao suffered severe brain damage. Doctors said his chances of recovery were virtually zero, and even survival was considered miraculous.

His wife, Lang Songmei, quit her job to provide 24-hour care. She supplemented the family income by selling paintings and received financial help from the child's father, who raised about 45,000 yuan (approximately 230,000 baht) for medical treatment.

Following medical advice, Lang stimulated her husband's nervous system by gently biting his toes, a controversial but ultimately effective technique. In 2024, after five years of unwavering care, Zhao began to regain awareness. He gradually responded more to his surroundings, eventually learning to understand speech, raise his hand, and stand briefly.

On June 30, he whispered to his wife on the hospital bed: "I love you," bringing tears of joy to her eyes. During writing practice, the only word he could write was his wife's name.

The story has deeply moved Chinese netizens, many calling Zhao a "child-saving hero" and Lang a "miracle maker." While some questioned the toe-biting method, most praised her love, sacrifice, and patience in never abandoning her husband through those difficult years, ultimately bringing hope and light back into their lives.

On July 12, 2025, military rangers operating in Sarakaew Province apprehended two Thai men attempting to illegally wade across the Khlong Luek River and cut through barbed wire fences to re-enter Thailand at checkpoint 17 near Ban Khlong Luek in Aranyaprathet District. The first suspect, 28, has four criminal court warrants, while the second, 40, is linked to 11 cases with nine additional warrants from Pathum Thani Provincial Court, totaling 13 outstanding warrants between them.

Investigation revealed both men had worked for a call center network in Poipet since February 2022, where they chatted with victims to solicit investment and scanned faces to open mule bank accounts for 5,000 baht per account. After Cambodian authorities launched a crackdown on call center operations in June 2025, their Chinese boss and some staff fled, leaving the two men jobless and stranded in Poipet. With funds depleted, they decided to illegally cross the border back to Thailand by wading through the river and cutting through barbed wire.

Authorities arrested both suspects and transferred them to Khlong Luek Police Station for legal proceedings, while investigators continue to pursue the broader call center network and mule account operation.
