As of Nov. 28, 2025, the southern province of Songkhla in Thailand is grappling with devastating floods that have claimed 55 lives, according to government spokesperson Siripong Angkasakulkiat. Authorities warn the death toll may climb as recovery efforts intensify.
Data from Songklanagarind Hospital shows a total of 85 fatalities across the region: 55 deaths directly linked to flooding and 30 others who passed away during the crisis due to separate causes. The heavy monsoon rains since early November have swelled rivers and inundated villages, forcing thousands to evacuate.
Local rescue teams and volunteers are on the ground with boats and high-clearance vehicles, racing against time to reach remote communities. Temporary shelters have been set up in schools and community centers, offering food, medicine, and a dry place to sleep. 💪🏼🏠
Residents like 27-year-old fisherman Kanya Phromjai share glimpses of life during the crisis: "My home is under two meters of water. We lost almost everything, but we’re staying positive and helping neighbors," she says.
Government agencies are coordinating with NGOs to distribute clean water, blankets, and hygiene kits. International relief funds are being considered, as neighboring countries and diaspora communities express solidarity with the affected areas.
With the rainy season still active, meteorologists caution that more heavy showers could hit the region in the coming days. Authorities urge everyone in risk zones to follow evacuation orders and stay updated through official channels. 🌧️📱
For those looking to help, donations of essential supplies can be made through certified relief organizations. Every bit of support counts in bringing hope and relief to Songkhla’s flood-hit communities. 🤝❤️
