Missing Pack Chong man found drowned; stranded saved
Twenty provinces in the North and Northeast are still at risk of flash floods over the next few days because of foreฌcast heavy rains.
Elsewhere, more than 1,000 families in two districts in Phitsanulok province in the lower North have been affected by floods, while more than 600 in Prachin Buri province in the east have been stranded by flash floods from Khao Yai National Park in neighbouring Nakhon Ratchasima.
More than 1,000 residents of Muak Lek, Saraburi and Pak Chong, Nakhon Ratchasima have received medical care from mobile teams at the initiative of HRH Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn. There have been no reports of injuries. One in 10 suffers from insomnia.
A total of 5,000 firstaid kits and 2,000 pairs of waterproof boots have been provided.
A total of 100,000 firstaid kits are being prepared for disฌtribution, the Public Health Ministry said.
Muak Lek Hospital has been closed to all but emergency cases because of the worst flooding in 25 years. Its 12 ICU patients were sent to nearby hospitals, the ministry said.
The body of a man who went missing in Pak Chong last Thursday has been found.
Around 380 locals have been affected by flood, district chief Khaneethip Bunyaket said.
In Mukdahan province, three days of rain have submerged four long sections of a major road under a metre of water, makฌing it impassable. A school in Dong Luang district is under 1.5 metres of water.
In Phitsanulok, Wang Thong and Noen Maprang residents blame a new irrigation canal saying it has changed the nature of drainage in the area.
Soldiers from a local unit have helped move residents of two isolated villages to safety.
