At least 27 killed in Bangkok beer pub fire, authorities say

July 12, 2026 / 4:55 PM EDT / AP

A huge fire engulfed a pub in Bangkok early on Monday morning, killing at least 27 people before firefighters brought the blaze under control, officials said.

Footage shared online by first responders shows a huge blaze raging and plumes coming out of the front door of the Na Ladprao pub in the northern part of the Thai capital. People are seen trying to flee as thick black smoke billows into the sky. Rescuers said the fire was reported around midnight.

Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul told reporters at the scene that 27 people died and that several of the injured have been taken to the hospital. He said the cause of the fire is under investigation.

Anutin said a musician who was performing at the pub told him that he saw smoke coming out of a circuit breaker near the stage before the power went out, then an explosion was heard and thick smoke quickly filled the place.

Many of the victims were found in the restrooms, at the back of the pub, Anutin added.

Firefighters took about half an hour to bring the fire under control. Photos of the aftermath show charred tables and chairs, and the damaged interior of the pub.

Thailand has seen similar tragedies in the past. In 2022, 14 people were killed by a fire at a music pub in the eastern part of the country.

More than a decade before that, 66 people were killed and more than 200 were injured in a fire during a Jan. 1, 2009, New Year’s Eve celebration at the Santika nightclub in Thailand’s capital. That blaze was apparently sparked by an indoor fireworks display.

Sen. Mitch McConnell says he was “briefly unconscious,” had pneumonia in latest health update

Sen. Mitch McConnell released a statement on his health on Sunday along with a photo of himself and his wife, Elaine Chao, after questions swirled about his condition. McConnell said he was “briefly unconscious” after he took a fall last month and he had been dealing with a “mild case of pneumonia.”

“You all know how folks of my generation often hesitate to share the vulnerability that comes with growing older,” the senator said, addressing growing questions about his well-being. “Even in the public eye, I feel that same instinct — I can’t help it.”

The 84-year-old Kentucky Republican has been hospitalized since June 14, his office said. On the same day, emergency medical personnel responded to an unconscious person at McConnell’s home, according to a public EMS dispatch call reviewed by CBS News earlier this month.

“My doctors have confirmed that I didn’t break any bones or suffer a concussion. I didn’t have a heart attack or a stroke. I don’t have any tumors or hemorrhages,” McConnell said Sunday. “But I was briefly unconscious and was taken to the hospital. While receiving excellent care over the past several weeks, I’ve also had to deal with a mild case of pneumonia.”

His doctors are trying to figure out what caused the incident, McConnell said, adding he’s doing everything they ask to speed up his recovery.

“In fact, with signs of continued progress, I’ve been able to move from hospital care to a rehabilitation center where I’ll keep regaining my strength,” he said.

The Republican said his medical team has not cleared him to return to the Senate floor to vote, but he assured that he has been working with his staff and Senate colleagues. Senate GOP leaders said earlier this week that they spoke with McConnell over the phone.

“You’re right to expect your representatives to work hard for you,” McConnell’s statement said. “And part of my decision to retire at the end of my term this coming January was being honest about the demands of Senate work. But I still have unfinished business to complete on your behalf, and I have every intention of finishing the job you elected me to do.”

The office of McConnell’s attending physician said the senator remained hospitalized to focus on physical therapy and reduce his risk of future falls.

McConnell, a childhood polio survivor, has faced several health scares in recent years. In a May 19 committee hearing, he was seen with a bandage around his hand. In February, McConnell spent more than a week in the hospital after he checked himself in for “flu-like symptoms.”

In 2023, he was hospitalized with a concussion after a fall and later appeared to freeze in two separate instances. He suffered minor injuries in 2024 after another fall.

位于泰国曼谷乍都乍区的一家酒吧餐厅深夜发生大火，造成至少27人死亡、数十人受伤。

综合《曼谷邮报》和法新社报道，火灾发生在星期一（7月13日）零时左右，乍都乍区（Chatuchak）拉抛路1巷（Soi Lat Phrao 1 Road）。

泰国国家警察于凌晨2时左右在社交媒体贴文说，火势已得到控制。

泰国首相阿努廷、曼谷市长差猜、泰国防灾减灾厅厅长提拉帕等高级官员都亲临现场。

阿努廷说，据餐厅里的乐手们描述，靠近舞台的断路器冒出浓烟，随后停电并发生爆炸。他说，大多数遇难者都跑到后面的厕所，但那里没有出口。

差猜说，火势蔓延迅速，直冲天花板，浓烟很可能是造成人员死亡的主要原因。他也说，63人受伤送院，其中22人伤势危重。

死者包括九名男性和18名女性，伤者被送往七家医院。

为削弱伊朗袭击商船能力 美军发起第四轮打击

2026年7月13日 07:37 / 联合早报

美国中央司令部说，美军星期天（7月12日）下午再对伊朗发动空袭，旨在进一步削弱伊朗攻击霍尔木兹海峡民用船只的能力。

彭博社报道，美国中央司令部在社媒X平台发文说，空袭于纽约时间星期天下午5时（新加坡时间星期一凌晨5时）开始。这是美军过去一周第四次对伊朗发动打击。

伊朗媒体13日凌晨报道，伊朗阿巴斯港、锡里克地区等多地传出爆炸声。

《纽约时报》引述一名未获授权公开发言的美国官员说，预计第四轮空袭的规模将大于美军早前发起的第三轮空袭。伊朗前一天袭击了悬挂塞浦路斯国旗的集装箱船GFS银河号（GFS Galaxy），导致这艘船起火受损，一名船员失踪。美军因此对伊朗发动第三轮空袭，激起伊朗对中东地区美军目标的又一轮报复行动。

美国总统特朗普12日接受美国全国广播公司（NBC）采访时，坚称霍尔木兹海峡保持畅通。

特朗普说：“这条海峡是畅通的。昨晚我们狠狠地轰炸了他们。”

特朗普也把近期美伊互袭的责任推给伊朗，“他们昨天刚同意一项协议……结果不到一个小时就发动袭击。”

伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队海军当地时间12日凌晨宣布，鉴于外国势力非法干预造成不安全局面，霍尔木兹海峡即日起关闭，直至另行通知以及美国停止干涉这一地区为止。而美国中央司令部于美国东部时间12日上午在X平台称，霍尔木兹海峡的“通行仍在继续”，伊朗并不控制这条海峡。

伊朗南部霍尔木兹甘省格什姆县县长说，自星期天（7月12日）下午以来，敌方约11枚“投射物”击中格什姆岛，造成一人死亡、两人受伤。

新华社引述伊朗迈赫尔通讯社报道，霍尔木兹甘省政府发布消息称，当地电信部门负责人马赫达维在美国当天发动的袭击中死亡，两名同行人员受伤。伤者正在接受治疗。

此前，格什姆岛（Qeshm Island）受袭，马赫达维被派往当地保障通信运行。

另据伊朗法尔斯通讯社报道，伊朗南部阿巴斯港、格什姆岛南部及附近海域12日晚上7时20分左右传出数次爆炸声。

格什姆岛位于伊朗南部霍尔木兹海峡北侧，是波斯湾第一大岛，也是伊朗最大的岛，具有极高的战略价值。

40 million under alerts as heat dome peaks across western U.S.

Severe weather alerts were in place for roughly 40 million people across the western United States on Sunday, as a heat dome scorching the region finally reached its peak.

Forecasters warned of the dangers associated with the unusually prolonged bout of warmth, which they’ve called “exceptionally rare” for some locations, even in mid-July. The harshest effects of the heat dome — an atmospheric phenomenon that essentially traps hot air over a particular location — were being felt in the northern Plains, Rockies and sections of the desert Southwest. But the National Weather Service said hazardous heat would spread eastward at times, while lingering in that central region through next weekend.

The heat dome built in the West after a strong heat wave, the first of the summer to be so large and intense, began to bake the area last week. Now, forecasters said people should brace for widespread temperature highs between 105 and 115 degrees, breaking numerous local temperature records and increasing wildfire risks. They also warned about the heightened chance of heat-related illnesses, including heat stroke.

“Extremely hot daytime highs combined with potentially record-warn lows will result in increasing heat stress over the next several days due to limited relief,” the weather service said in an advisory.

The weather service office in Billings, Montana, said temperatures in the region could reach all-time highs on Sunday, climbing well into the triple digits and, potentially, up to 112 degrees. Extreme heat warnings were in place across much of the state, which, the weather service said, could strain “health systems, industries, and infrastructure” and harm anyone without access to adequate cooling and hydration.

Salt Lake City could also challenge its all-time high temperature on Sunday, as forecasters predicted it could reach 107 degrees. Most of Utah was under an extreme heat warning, which was scheduled to remain in place through Tuesday morning.

Heat has also spread across the Dakotas, with forecasters also issuing extreme heat warnings for vast sections of both states. In Bismarck, North Dakota, they said conditions would be “dangerously hot,” with heat indices ticking upward to 100 or 110 degrees through Monday, and low temperatures in the 70s offering little reprieve.

Similar weather was forecast for much of South Dakota, where the weather service advised people to “stay out of the sun” and “check up on relatives and neighbors,” among other recommendations to reduce the likelihood of developing heat-related illnesses.
