A 14-year-old student in Thailand killed at least five people and himself at a school outside Bangkok on Friday after fatally shooting his grandparents, police said, in the Southeast Asian nation's worst mass killing since 2022.
Those killed at the school were all teachers and staff, police said. Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said more than 30 people were injured, with around nine in critical condition.
