Major Floods hit Chon Buri's Sri Racha District Last Night, Inundating Hundreds Of Homes

(CTN News) – In the Sri Racha district of Chon Buri’s eastern province, hundreds of houses and buildings were flooded last night.

Some areas reported water levels of almost 30 centimeters, which caused traffic problems, especially for small vehicles.

As the area was located near a canal, the water level in one village reached 50-60 centimeters.

Besides the heavy rains, a large amount of waste in the canal also blocked the drainage system, causing floods.

The Council of Provincial Administrative Organizations of Chonburi Province helped villagers remove debris and waste blocking drainage systems.

The floods damaged many electrical appliances.
