people were killed and injured in a shooting at on the outskirts of Bangkok, , according to ARY News. The attack unfolded during a school morning at a campus that had more than 3,000 students and nearly 150 teachers, according to data from last year cited by ARY News. Police said the alleged gunman pulled out a gun and started shooting just before 10 a.m. (0300 GMT), after taking a bus 18 km (11 miles) from a home where, at dawn, he had shot dead his grandparents. Over the next 40 minutes or so, the alleged gunman — a 14-year-old student — killed three teachers and two school officials before turning the gun on himself, Reuters reported. Officials have described his death as . Police, including a specialised unit, responded to the school. ARY News reported the toll as dead and injured. No other agency figures appear in the material reviewed. That account is now more than two days old, and no newer reporting — no revised toll, no additional official statement — has been added to it since. The figures above therefore stand as first reported rather than as an updated official count.

How we work

This site models an investigative reporter rather than a wire desk. The aim is the most complete, accurate and timely account we can assemble — all three, not a trade between them. Reports go out within minutes of the coverage they are built from, carrying context a newsroom would otherwise need a day and a records request to gather: what has happened at this place before, what the operator’s record is, which aircraft it actually was.

Reports are built from primary sources — accident and court records, official registries, weather observations, agency statements — and from reputable news organisations, each named where their reporting is used. Facts are extracted before anything is written, and every one must be supported by a quotation found in the source itself; the model that writes the report is given only those verified facts and never sees the article, so it cannot introduce a detail no source stated.

Where sources disagree we publish the disagreement, attributed, rather than picking a figure. Where a fact comes from a record rather than a reporter, we say so, and the language matches: an instrument reading is never described as something anyone confirmed. Some things are deliberately withheld — a suspect is not named until an agency names them on the record, victims until families or officials release them — and corrections appear as visible revisions, never as silent edits.

None of that makes a report true. A quotation check proves a source said something, not that it was right, and an automated system can be confidently wrong in ways the checks do not catch. If something here is wrong, the feedback above is how it gets found. The full methodology, including what we refuse to publish.
