Deadly Explosion: Nine Lives Lost in Thailand Fireworks Warehouse

Nine people have been killed and over 115 injured in an explosion at a fireworks warehouse in Sungai Kolok, Thailand. The blast, believed to be caused by a technical error during steel welding, occurred in a market near the Malaysian border. The fire has been brought under control, but many shops, homes, and vehicles were severely damaged. Thailand's construction industry has a poor safety record, and deadly accidents are common.
