Accident Chiang Mai: Revered Monk Dies After Falling into Ravine While Planting Trees
Pictures courtesy of Amarin. The local community is mourning the death of Phra Khru Ba Phan, the highly respected abbot of Wat Phra That Huai Tong in Mae Wang district, Chiang Mai, who passed away after falling into a 30-metre-deep ravine while tending to trees in a forested area near the temple. The incident occurred on 25 June, but his body was only discovered the following morning, after concerned villagers noticed his absence from his usual routines and began searching for him. They found a hoe handle near the edge of a cliff, which led to the discovery of his body at the base of the ravine. Police from Mae Wang Police Station responded to the scene and found no signs of foul play. Marks on the ground indicated that the abbot had been digging and planting trees close to the cliff edge. Investigators believe he may have fainted or lost his footing and accidentally fallen while planting trees, an activity he frequently undertook as part of his environmental efforts. Phra Khru Ba Phan, aged 70, was widely known for his spiritual leadership and commitment to the preservation and development of Wat Phra That Huai Tong, an ancient temple on Doi Mae Wang, home to historic Mon-Lawa style brickwork. He was especially revered among local Tai-Karen, Tai-Yai, and Pa-O communities, whom he served faithfully for many years. Devotees and fellow monks described him as a humble, hardworking monk who regularly cared for the temple grounds and surrounding nature. His death has left a deep void in the community, with villagers expressing their sorrow at the loss of their spiritual guide and a man who was regarded as the moral pillar of the region.

Israeli forces kill 51 Palestinians waiting for flour at Gaza aid site
At least 18 Palestinians have been killed after an Israeli drone strike targeted a Hamas police unit attempting to assert control over a market in the city of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, a doctor and eyewitnesses told the BBC. Eyewitnesses said Israeli drones fired at members of a Hamas police force, dressed in civilian clothing and wearing masks, who were confronting vendors they accused of price gouging and selling goods looted from aid trucks. One eyewitness told the BBC clashes broke out on Thursday after police confronted the vendors, with the unit commander shouting: "Either sell at a fair price or we will confiscate the goods." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly8dlzx918o -
