Thailand Natural disaster management officials said on Saturday that Thirteen people have been killed due to flash floods in Thailand's Nakhon Si Thammarat province. 

The report of the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM), says the 13 villagers drowned due to flash floods and torrential waters, following heavy downpours in Nakhon Si Thammarat over the last few days, reports an international news agency. Due to continual, heavy rainstorms since late last month, six southern Thai provinces have been severely flooded, says the DDPM report. 

A total of 321,057 households in 2,680 villages in 66 districts of the six provinces have been considerably affected while authorities are providing emergency relief measures. The affected southern provinces are Surat Thani, Krabi, Trang, Phatthalung, Songkhla and Nakhon Si Thammarat.
