THE THAI Embassy in Tel Aviv arranged for the return of 19 more Thai workers injured in the Israel-Hamas war with the El Al airline flight having departed at 4.30 a.m. local time this morning (Oct. 13) and due to land at Suvarnabhumi Airport at 5.15 p.m., Naewna newspaper and TV Channel 7 said.

 

Yesterday 15 Thai workers flew back home with the help of the embassy while 26 others had purchased their own ticket to do so.

 

Meanwhile Israeli Ambassador Mrs. Orna Sagiv told Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin during talks at Government House this morning that people had now been moved four kilometres away from the danger zone.
