When Hamas gunmen attacked Israel on October 7, farmhands who had travelled thousands of miles (kilometres) to work close to the Gaza border found themselves on the front line.

In all, 34 Thai nationals were killed and 19 wounded, while 24 others were taken as hostages back to Gaza, according to Thai officials.
