Thailand has suspended new gun permits after a mass shooting, authorities say, as they move to tighten weapons control. The decision is intended to slow access to firearms while officials review existing regulations and investigate how the attacker obtained weapons. Government agencies are expected to examine background checks, licensing procedures, and enforcement gaps. Police say they will also increase monitoring of gun owners and strengthen crime-prevention efforts. The temporary suspension could affect lawful permit applications and renewals, depending on how long the review lasts. Officials said additional measures may follow once preliminary findings are available.
