BANGKOK, July 30 (The Straits Times/ANN): There is a 1.2 per cent chance that debris from the falling Chinese rocket booster will hit Thailand, the Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA) said.

In a Facebook post on Friday night (July 29), GISTDA said there is still a small chance that some debris may land here because Thailand is in the rocket’s orbit path.
