What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Authorities in Rayong ordered an emergency evacuation after cracks were found in the wall of Khlong Ra-Ok Reservoir, also known as Khao Chuk Dam, due to continued heavy rainfall. The reservoir reached 117 percent of its capacity, leading officials to open the outlet gates fully to reduce pressure. Widespread flood warnings persist across Thailand.
