4 foreign nationals killed in Hezbollah rocket attack identified as Thai citizens
Four Thais were killed in northern Israel by rocket fire from Lebanon, Thailand’s foreign minister says.
The four are named: Kawisak Papanang, Akaphon Vanasay, Thanh Tig’antk and Prayat Philatram.
Maris Sangiampongsa, in a post on social media platform X, says he’s “deeply saddened” by the deaths close to the town of Metula on Thursday, adding another Thai citizen was injured.
The head of the regional council in Metula said late Thursday that five people had been killed in the rocket strike from Lebanon, one local farmer and four foreign farm workers.
