At 8:30 p.m. on June 30, 2569, Deputy Sergeant Major Thaworn Saengjai, investigation officer at Chang Yai Police Station in Ayutthaya Province, received a report of a body floating in the Chao Phraya River near a cargo dock in Ratchakram Subdistrict, Bang Thai District, Ayutthaya. Officers from the investigation unit, forensic team, and Ayutthaya Unity volunteers responded to the scene.

At the location, police found a cargo-laden boat docked with large amounts of water hyacinth floating nearby. The male body was found face-down entangled in the vegetation, with signs of bloating and decomposition. Officials estimated the man had been dead for approximately 4-5 days. Family members identified the deceased as Prasert, 72, from Tha Ruea District, Ayutthaya Province, who had fallen from a cargo boat and gone missing on the night of June 26.

Ms. Krisara, 50, the victim's daughter-in-law, revealed that on the day of the incident, the family was operating four motorboats towing an empty cargo vessel bound for Ang Thong Province. Prasert was responsible for securing the ropes on the cargo boat. He was last seen around 8 p.m. while the boats were passing under a bridge in Po Taeng Subdistrict, Bang Thai District, before disappearing. When the boats arrived at the dock in Pa Mok District, Ang Thong, workers called for him to secure the ropes but he could not be found, prompting a search effort.

Krisara noted that despite Prasert's long experience working on boats, he had vision problems—blind in one eye with poor vision in the other. The incident occurred at night, which may have contributed to him losing his footing and falling overboard. However, no witnesses were present during the incident, so police investigations are underway to determine the exact cause.

Saphakpon Unsungnoen, an official from the Ayutthaya Unity Association, stated that following reports from dock workers of a body caught near the pier, they investigated and found physical characteristics matching the 72-year-old man relatives had requested help finding. When family members arrived for identification, they confirmed the body through clothing and physical features.

Police initially examined the scene and interviewed family members before sending the body for detailed autopsy at the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Pathum Thani Province to determine the cause of death according to legal procedures, before returning it to relatives for religious rites.

Bernd Neuendorf, president of the German Football Association (DFB), confirmed that the organization will implement significant changes to its operational approach following Germany's disappointing performance at the 2026 World Cup.

Germany's tournament ended at the group stage after a 1-1 draw with Paraguay in extra time, with the team then losing 3-4 on penalties. This marks Germany's third consecutive early elimination from the World Cup.

Neuendorf stated: "We cannot continue to operate in the same way. We will conduct a thorough examination of why our team could not perform to its full potential and failed to meet the expectations of German football. After our World Cup elimination, I had extensive discussions with national team coach Julian Nagelsmann and our sports management team. We all agree that our World Cup performance fell below the standards we set for ourselves. We are all deeply disappointed that our journey ended so quickly."

Lionel Messi, captain of Argentina's national team, has made a cameo appearance in a new advertisement for the upcoming film "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" alongside superstar Tom Holland. In the commercial, Messi plays himself walking into a coffee shop where Holland, in his role as Peter Parker, is sitting. Upon seeing Messi enter, Holland's character shows surprise and greets him. Messi then reveals he has been helping hunt Spider-Man across the city using a tracking device on his phone. Parker subsequently disappears into the back of the shop, and Spider-Man appears in his place. The two then venture out together to swing on web lines and explore the city. The advertisement concludes with a message that the film will begin its theatrical run in the United States on July 31. Currently 39 years old, Messi remains committed to Argentina's 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign, where he has demonstrated outstanding form by scoring six goals across three group-stage matches.
