Thailand ‘disappointed’ by renewed Gaza fighting, urges release of Thai hostage

Thailand says it’s “disappointed” by the return to hostilities in Gaza and calls for the release of hostages, including a Thai national.

“Thailand is profoundly concerned about and disappointed at the return to hostilities in the Gaza Strip,” says a Thai foreign ministry statement.

The Southeast Asian nation urges “all sides to exercise utmost restraint, cease the hostilities and resume negotiations to implement the ceasefire and hostage agreement.”

It calls for the release of remaining hostages in Gaza — including one Thai — and the repatriation of the bodies of two Thai nationals.
