Thailand's police spokesperson reported that seven people were killed and fifteen wounded in a school shooting incident.
Thai police confirmed Friday morning that seven people were killed and 15 wounded in the school shooting at the Debsirin Nonthaburi school north of Bangkok. The death toll includes the student attacker, who died by suicide after killing a teacher, according to earlier reports. The confirmation of the casualty figures marks the latest official update in the unfolding story.
The Zioneer reported throughout the early morning hours that the shooter, a student at the school, first murdered his grandparents before opening fire on the campus. He then killed a teacher and wounded approximately 20 others before taking his own life. The casualty count was initially reported as two dead, then rose to four, and later to seven including the attacker, with 15 wounded. The detail about the grandparents' murder was added in a subsequent police statement.
The incident is among the deadliest school shootings in Thailand in recent years, according to local media reports. The Zioneer has also reported on other attacks in Thailand, including a July 2026 incident in the south in which five soldiers were killed.
The shooter's motive remains unclear. Police have not released further details about the weapon used or any indication of a prior plan.
