BANGKOK (Reuters): Thailand is working with Jordan, Egypt and Malaysia, among other countries, with a view to securing the release of its citizens taken hostage during unrest in Israel, a deputy foreign minister said on Monday (Oct 9).
A dozen Thai nationals were killed, nine wounded and 11 more kidnapped, Thailand's government said, when Hamas militants burst across the fence from Gaza on a rampage that killed at least 700 Israelis. Dozens of people have been taken hostage.
