Police say sorry after doctored flood relief photograph


border police have apologised for publishing an AI-modified image showing flood relief rescuers in combat gear and wielding automatic weapons in one of the hardest-hit cities in the south.

The 437th Border Patrol Police unit published the image of gun-toting rescuers on its Facebook page after social media footage recorded sounds of shots being fired as volunteers on jetskis worked in a flooded neighbourhood in Hat Yai.
