Thailand tightens gun controls after deadly school shooting

By GhanaSummary NewsroomEgypt

Bangkok — Thailand is suspending new gun permits and tightening its firearm controls after last week’s deadly school shooting, in which a 14-year-old boy killed eight people before turning the gun on himself.

The mass shooting has shone a new spotlight on Thailand’s high levels of gun ownership, both licensed and unlicensed.

As well as reigniting debate about gun control in Thailand, the shooting has put a focus on mental health for students and young people.
