4. Thailand's Ayutthaya Province Hit by Severe Flooding
On September 16, continuous heavy rainfall and increased water discharge from upstream dams led to a rapid rise in the water levels of the Chao Phraya River and its tributaries in Thailand's Ayutthaya Province. The flooding has affected 6 districts, 87 subdistricts, and 550 villages, impacting over 25,000 households and claiming 1 confirmed death. The Thai Irrigation Agency warned that despite operating drainage canals at full capacity, large-scale water release remains necessary due to persistent high inflows from upstream. Dam discharge rates have been increased to 2,000–2,500 cubic meters per second, causing downstream water levels to surge by 40–60 cm within a short period and resulting in severe inundation in low-lying riverside areas of Ayutthaya. On-site observations reveal submerged villages reliant on boats for transportation, with several temples and meditation centers flooded—only their rooftops remain visible—posing a threat to the safety of Buddhist statues.
