Government spokesperson Siripong Angkasakarkiat told a news conference that eight southern provinces had reported deaths, with Songkhla province recording the highest number of deaths at 110.
The Ministry of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation said widespread flooding in the south affected an estimated 3.54 million people, despite water levels receding in several regions, Xinhua news agency reported.
The worst-hit city, Hat Yai, received the heaviest rain in years during a heavy monsoon earlier this week, prompting the government to declare a state of emergency in Songkhla province to streamline evacuation and rescue operations.
On November 28, 2025, a man checks flood damage on the street in Hat Yai, Songkhla Province, Thailand. The death toll from severe flooding in southern Thailand has risen to 145, authorities said Friday.
A total of 145 deaths have been reported across the southern region, with the worst-hit province of Songkhla recording the highest number of deaths at 110, government spokesperson Siripong Angkasakarkiat told a news conference.
