A no-confidence motion has been moved against prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha and his colleagues, including public health minister Anutin Charnvirakul, for mishandling the COVID-19 pandemic

The protests against the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic also marked a year of agitations against the government of Prayuth Chan-o-cha and the law against insulting the monarchy

Parit Chirawak, Chaiamorn Kaewwiboonpan and Phromsorn Weerathamjaree were released from prison on May 11. Over the past few days, four more activists facing similar charges have also got bail
