Crime CIB Arrests Bus Driver Smuggling 16 Illegal Immigrants
Picture courtesy of CIB. The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB), in cooperation with the Highway Police Division, has arrested a bus driver and 16 foreign nationals entering Thailand illegally. The suspects were detained on Highway 1 in Thanon Ngam subdistrict, Khlong Khlung district, Kamphaeng Phet province. The bus driver, Mr Charoen, 44, was charged with knowingly assisting illegal immigrants to evade arrest. Among the 16 foreign nationals found hidden inside the bus were 11 Myanmar nationals and 5 Chinese nationals. Most of the migrants lacked valid identification or passports, except for five Chinese individuals whose permits to stay in Thailand had expired. The operation followed a tip-off from passengers who reported suspicious behaviour when the bus made two unauthorised stops to pick up passengers, raising concerns of human smuggling. Mr Charoen admitted to being hired by two separate groups, receiving a total payment of 22,000 baht to transport the migrants to Mo Chit Bus Terminal in Bangkok. All suspects were taken into custody and charged accordingly before being handed over to the Khlong Khlung Police Station for further legal action. This arrest was carried out under the direction of Pol Lt Gen Jiraphop Phuridech, Commissioner of the CIB, Pol Maj Gen Kongkrit Lertsittikul, Commander of the Highway Police Division, and Pol Col Satit Samanapap, Chief of Division 5, Highway Police.

Updates and events in the War in Ukraine 2025
Svitlana Morenets Putin’s summer offensive is gaining momentum -THE SPECTATOR https://archive.ph/JLs60#selection-1195.0-1201.44 With all that said, the Russian breach north of Pokrovsk doesn't come unexpectedly. It is the product of months of accumulated issues in Ukraine’s armed forces, starting from inefficient mobilisation, chronic weapons shortages, chaos in communication between units, misleading reports from the field to senior command and ill-conceived orders to attack for the sake of attacking rather than stabilising the defence. As many soldiers have pointed out, there is also the deeper problem: the absence of a clear strategic vision from Ukraine’s military leadership about what can realistically be achieved on the battlefield. The result is that Russian troops are now tightening the noose around the last fortress cities in the Ukrainian-held quarter of Donbas. -

Accident Man Seriously Injured After Falling Down Ravine While Foraging
Picture courtesy of Kaoded. A 47-year-old man survived a harrowing fall into a deep ravine on Phang Yae Mountain in Sai Thong National Park, Chaiyaphum after becoming trapped on bamboo thickets midway down a sheer drop. Rescue teams worked through the night to locate and evacuate the injured man. At around 03:00 on 12 August, the local district chief of Phakdi Chumphon, Ms. Assara Asasu, coordinated the efforts of over 60 rescue personnel from Huk 31 rescue teams from Phakdi Chumphon and Korat, local first responders and national park officials. The man, Mr. Chatchawan, a resident of Moo 3, Chao Thong subdistrict, had been foraging for mushrooms and bamboo shoots on the mountain since early morning the previous day. His partner, Mrs. Dahwan, 48, alerted authorities after receiving a distressing call from Mr. Chatchawan in the evening, reporting a fall that left him unable to walk with a broken right arm, fractured ribs and a head injury. Rescuers found him clinging to bamboo plants precariously positioned above a 100-metre vertical drop. The steep terrain and dangerous conditions meant the rescue and evacuation took several hours, involving careful planning and coordinated efforts to ensure safety for both the injured man and the rescue teams. The man was carried over 3 kilometres by foot to reach a road where an ambulance awaited to transfer him to Phakdi Chumphon Hospital for urgent treatment. During the rescue, Mrs. Dahwan fainted on the roadside, after seeing her partner and was also taken to hospital for care. Mrs. Dahwan later warned others about the dangers of foraging in unfamiliar forest areas, especially during the rainy season when slippery moss and waterlogged rocks increase the risk of accidents. She urged villagers and forest gatherers to exercise caution or avoid such activities without proper preparation. Chaiyaphum province frequently records incidents of villagers getting lost or injured while foraging in forested areas. Just last week, a villager was found dead in Phu Lan Ka National Park and another recent case involved a mushroom forager getting lost on Phang Yae Mountain.

Netanyahu says decision made for full occupation of Gaza
Israel intensifies bombing of Gaza, killing 89 Palestinians in 24 hours Israel has stepped up bombing Gaza, killing at least 89 Palestinians in 24 hours, including at least 15 people queueing for food, despite global outcry over the deaths of six journalists in the territory the previous day. Gaza’s civil defence agency said Israeli airstrikes on Gaza City had intensified in the three days after Benjamin Netanyahu’s security cabinet approved plans to expand the war in the territory. Late on Tuesday, Netanyahu again raised the prospect that Palestinians would leave the Gaza Strip, telling Israeli broadcaster i24NEWS that “we are not pushing them out, but we are allowing them to leave”.
