At least 38 people have lost their lives after the attack on a nursery in north-east Thailand. Among the victims were about 20 children, younger than 2 years old. Until now, it is said that the perpetrator, a 34-year-old former policeman, entered a nursery armed, where he started to open fire and stab, leaving behind a tragic balance of victims. Hundreds of police forces urgently cordoned off the Nong Bua Lamphu area. After causing carnage at the scene, the perpetrator ended his life.

The authorities say that even earlier he had problems with the law, accused of being involved in drug cases. 

According to preliminary data, he attacked with firearms and knives both the children and their parents who were in the nursery at those moments. The motive for this crime is not yet clear. Such events are rare in Thailand. The most recent of them was recorded in 2020, when a soldier killed 21 people and injured dozens more in the town of Nakon Raçasima.
