WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT: Although we have blurred the images, some readers may find the descriptions in the article upsetting.

Facebook has refused to remove graphic images of dead Thai children, including a baby, because it says the posts do not violate its Community Standards.

The distressing images, were included in two separate posts shared in a Facebook group on May 11.

One of the images shows the naked body of a baby that had been dumped in a rubbish bin in central Pattaya.

The other images show the lifeless bodies of two children aged nine and ten who drowned after getting into difficulty while playing in water in Udon Thani.

Both images were posted in the “ข่าวจาก อาสากู้ภัย THAILAND” group which shares graphic and gruesome images from road traffic accidents and crime scenes throughout Thailand.

Abridged from source. Source in title. [Opinion. Oh, yeah, I get it: The USA doesn’t have a draft, right? Guess again! However, Commander Bone Spurs has just realised how much more unpopular a new draft could make him look. Let’s take a look at “automatic” registration collected from govt databases by DOGE and other agencies. However, is it really possible to track any individual down? We’re all pretty mobile.
