Over the Lunar New Year holiday, a passenger van crash in central Thailand resulted in the burning deaths of eleven individuals, including two children, authorities reported on Monday.

In the kingdom, which has a poor reputation for road safety, traffic accidents are frequent, especially during popular holidays.

During its journey from northeastern Amnat Charoen province to Bangkok on Saturday night, the van carrying 12 people drove off the road in central Nakhon Ratchasima province, according to Police Colonel Yingyos Poldej.

One passenger was able to escape through a window, according to Yingyos, while the other passengers were all trapped and perished in the fire.

Student Thanachit Kingkaew, the survivor, claimed to have been napping when someone screamed, startling him awake.

"The van was upside down when I awoke, which was the second thing I noticed. I was blind to what occurred, "said he.

"After the collision, the fire spread throughout the entire van, beginning at the back."

He claimed, "I started kicking the glass and crawled through a little hole.

The van detonated shortly after that.

A local rescue team volunteer named Nikhom Seaun claimed that the van detonated barely seconds after it was consumed by flames.

The entire van was consumed by the fire in less than 30 seconds, he claimed.

"With the fire extinguisher I had, I was powerless. Then, the van went off three or four times."

The van used both petrol and compressed gas, according to police colonel Yingyos, but preliminary investigations revealed that the gas tank was not leaking.

He added that they were still looking into what caused the car to go off the road but "we suspect that the fire was caused by the fuel."

The visit of H.H Sheik Khaled bin Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi to India is more than just a mere ceremonial occasion; this visit stands as a clear testimony of the longevity and dynamism of UAE-India relations. This association has become complex over time involving not just the economy but also major concerns such as sustainable development, trade, climate action etc. The dynamic relationship between the two nations has been redefined from their historical links into contemporary strategic alliances which makes this visit a natural follow-on from long-standing ties.

The UAE's AI Ambitions Get a Boost with Nvidia Chip Approval: A Game-Changer for the Gulf Region.

-
The advance made by the United States in the approval of cutting-edge Nvidia chips to G42 is a historic development for UAE’s artificial intelligence ambitions. This strategy thus not only represents significant technological growth but also marks an important political milestone for UAE that wants to portray itself as a global hub for technology. In particular, accessing advanced AI technologies such as Nvidia’s H100 models has been significantly hindered over the years due to fears about UAE-China relations, with the US tightening its export restrictions in the area. However, this recent endorsement—a fact which received little attention—shows that there is now greater strategic flexibility and demonstrates how committed UAE is towards ensuring it stays clear from any possible Chinese influence if it wants to become one of our most reliable partners. The timing for G42’s bold distribution of these Nvidia chips could not be better. With worldwide AI rivalry heating up after the advent...
