Thai Hostages Freed from Gaza Return Home Five Thai nationals, who endured over a year in captivity in Gaza, have been reunited with their families following their release last month. The men—Watchara Sriaoun, Pongsak Thaenna, Sathian Suwannakham, Sarusak Rumnao, and Bannawat Saethao—arrived at Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport on Sunday morning, greeted by emotional reunions with their loved ones. The Thai Foreign Minister, Maris Sangiampongsa, who accompanied the men from Israel, expressed profound relief at their return, stating, "This is emotional... to come back to the embrace of their families." Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra also welcomed their release, thanking Israel and other nations involved in securing their freedom. The five men were released in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, as part of a ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel. Their return brings hope to the families of the remaining Thai nationals still believed to be held captive in Gaza.
