At approximately 17:20 emergency services received a call reporting the blaze, prompting a swift response from the Huai Khwang Fire Station. Firefighters supported by rescue personnel from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation rushed to the scene, where thick black smoke was seen billowing from the ninth floor of the 15-story building. By 17:30 emergency responders were set up and actively working to extinguish the flames, trying to prevent the fire from spreading, while ensuring the evacuation of all residents from the affected unit and floors. After an hour it was confirmed that the fire had been extinguished, and contained within the initial unit. Firefighting was from hose-lines off the buildings internal fire mains, with responders needing breathing apparatus to enter the burning unit. There was some smoke damage effecting the communal access corridor on the 9th floor, but no damage was reported to any other unit.

Survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki Awarded Nobel Peace Prize for Nuclear Disarmament
I lived in Japan for around ten years. Every year they had these solemn commemoration events where they basically pretended to be the victims of foreign aggression. I love Japan, I love the people, read, write and speak the language fluently but was always shocked at this. Luckily nobody in noreal situations would ever bring it up. It is just something on NHK every year that very few watch anymore. -

South Korean Doctor Arrested at Bangkok Clinic Amidst Raid
BANGKOK - A South Korean doctor practicing in Thailand was arrested by Thai authorities during a raid on a central Bangkok beauty clinic. The operation was led by Dr. Phanuwat Panket, head of the Department of Health Services, alongside representatives from the Medical Council of Thailand and local police. The raid caught the doctor in the act of treating a patient, reportedly through agency referrals. The doctor faces charges under the Medical Profession Act B.E.2525 (1982) for practicing without proper registration and permission in Thailand, an offence with potential penalties of up to three years in prison and/or a fine of 30,000 baht. Dr. Topol Wattana from the Medical Council stated that they will be gathering evidence against the clinic for employing an unlicensed physician, with this offence carrying a penalty of up to two years imprisonment and/or a fine of 40,000 baht. The Council aims to submit this evidence to the Consumer Protection Police, prompting an interrogation of the doctor. Furthermore, the Immigration Police will be alerted to prevent the doctor's departure from Thailand. Should he evade detention, Interpol will be contacted to secure his capture. Dr. Akom Pradit Suwan, deputy chief of the Department of Health Services, emphasised the necessity for beauty clinics to comply with legal protocols when employing foreign doctors. Clinics must secure permission from the local health authority, and foreign doctors must pass exams to obtain a professional license to practice in Thailand. These developments highlight the stringent regulatory environment for medical practitioners in Thailand, especially those from abroad. This incident raises broader questions about regulatory compliance and the oversight of foreign professionals in the country's bustling beauty industry, reported Thai Newsroom, Ministry of Public Health.

Man Shot Dead in Confrontation with Local Youths in Udon Thani
A violent incident occurred late night on October 10, in Ban Khok Subdistrict, Sangkaom District, Udon Thani Province, leaving a 42-year-old man dead after a fatal altercation with a group of local youths. The incident took place in Village 10, where the victim reportedly got into a heated argument over the setting off of firecrackers, with the group. Tensions escalated, resulting in the fatal attack. Authorities from the Sangkaom Police Station quickly launched an investigation and were able to track down and arrest the suspect, a 19 year old from the same subdistrict. The weapon used in the attack was also recovered by the police, hidden under the seat of his motorcycle. Police believe the dispute may have been the result of ongoing tensions between the victim and the youths. The exact motives behind the altercation are still under investigation, but the teenager claimed he used the gun in self defence as the victim had threatened him with a stick. The youth told police he had bought the gun online for 32000 baht. Investigations are ongoing as authorities work to bring clarity to the situation and ensure justice is served.
