25 people are feared dead after a fire in a school bus in a suburb of Thailand's capital Bangkok. On board were 44 passengers, both teachers and students, who were on a school trip when the fire started.

The number of dead has not been confirmed since the work on site is not finished, according to Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul.

Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has promised that the authorities will pay for medical expenses and compensate the families of the victims.
