Thailand’s government has confirmed a tragic escalation in the human cost of severe flooding across its southern regions, with the official death toll reaching 145 individuals. The announcement was made by official spokesperson Siripong Angkasakulkiat during a press briefing held on Friday, November 28th, 2025.
The province of Songkhla has borne the brunt of the catastrophe, accounting for over 100 of the confirmed fatalities, underscoring the concentrated severity of the flooding in that area. The disaster has inflicted widespread damage to infrastructure, homes, and livelihoods throughout the southern provinces, prompting a large-scale emergency response effort.
While the spokesperson provided the updated casualty figures, the full extent of the economic impact and the displacement of residents remains under assessment. The floods, triggered by a period of exceptionally heavy seasonal rainfall, have submerged vast tracts of land, isolating communities and hampering rescue and relief operations. The government continues to coordinate efforts to provide aid to affected populations and begin the arduous process of recovery and rebuilding in the hardest-hit zones.
