Local officials confirmed the incident on Saturday, informing AFP of the evacuation.[1]

    Capsizing Off Koh Samui

    Timely Rescue by Thai Authorities

    Local authorities carried out a search operation that led to the family’s extraction from the sea. The rescue was conducted within the same day as the incident, according to official accounts. The crew of the rescue vessel worked to stabilise the family and provide immediate care after recovery.[1]
