Flash floods swamp homes in northern Thai province

Heavy overnight rain triggered severe flash floods in Thailand’s northern Nan province on Wednesday (Aug 19), inundating homes, washing away bridges and cutting off key roads. Pua district was among the hardest-hit areas, with several schools suspending classes and residents left stranded by rapidly rising water. Authorities have deployed emergency teams and heavy equipment to provide assistance to residents. More heavy rain is forecast across northern Thailand through Aug 21, raising the risk of further flooding and landslides. #thailand #thailandnews Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
