Makkasan Crash Aftermath: Thai authorities urged the public not to share graphic images after the Bangkok train-bus collision near Makkasan, saying it could worsen trauma for families, survivors, and even children. Accountability in Focus: Reuters reports police have charged the train driver with negligence causing death; the bus driver is also expected to face charges once medically able to be questioned. Forensics and IDs: With victims badly burned, officials say DNA matching with relatives is the main way to confirm identities, with results expected by Tuesday, while BMTA says it will take full responsibility and has pledged initial compensation. Public Safety Push: Transport officials say safety oversight at rail crossings will be tightened after the crash, which killed eight and injured dozens. Regional Ripple Effects: Separately, Thailand asked Iran to allow safe passage for eight stranded Thai ships through the Strait of Hormuz amid heightened Middle East tensions.
