On May 10, Udom Prongfah, chairman of the Suphan Buri Provincial Administration Organization, led an incense and candle lighting ceremony at Wat Chainawat in Mueang District to inaugurate a new pollution-free crematorium, funded with 2 million baht from the provincial administration. The temple held a test cremation for a 109-year-old man named Kluay, with participants writing wishes for the removal of suffering, sorrow, sickness, and hardship on papers placed in the coffin. After the ceremony, Udom and community members paid respects to a statue of the late Luang Pho Thom, the temple's former abbot. Attendees then sought out lucky numbers: 109 (the deceased's age) and 492 and 83 (derived from the coffin lid), creating such a frenzy that lottery vendors sold out their inventory within the temple grounds as everyone rushed to buy tickets for the May 16 lottery draw.

The Thai Meteorological Department has issued warnings for heavy downpours affecting 41 provinces, with Bangkok and surrounding areas expecting rainfall covering 40% of the area. The southern region faces particular risk of sudden flooding. On May 11, 2025, the department forecasts hot conditions in northern Thailand during midday with continued thunderstorms and strong gusts in some areas, caused by weakening high-pressure systems and cold air masses from China over the Northeast and South China Sea.

Residents are advised to avoid open areas, large trees, buildings, and weak structures, and to be cautious of heavy rainfall and accumulated water that could cause flash floods and landslides, especially in hilly areas near water sources and low-lying regions. Farmers should reinforce fruit trees and prepare to protect crops and livestock from potential damage, while also maintaining health during weather changes.

Surat Thani police have arrested a suspect accused of stealing from a young athlete competing in the National Youth Games within 48 hours. On May 10, 2025, Police Major General Suwat Suksri, commander of Surat Thani Provincial Police, along with deputy commander Police Colonel Sirichai Suksart, Muang Surat Thani Station Commander Police Colonel Pornrong Garonarjai, and deputy station commander Police Lieutenant Yot Chaorai, apprehended 49-year-old Thammavet, nicknamed Yod, and recovered a mobile phone and backpack.

The arrest followed an incident on the evening of May 8 when the suspect allegedly stole belongings from athletes who had traveled to compete in the National Youth Games in Surat Thani. The case drew significant attention on social media and caused considerable embarrassment to the province as host.

Investigating officers moved quickly following the report and managed to arrest the suspect within 48 hours at a residence in Tambon Tha Thong Mai, Amphoe Kanthaladis, Surat Thani Province. They recovered an iPhone 17 before taking him in for questioning.

The suspect initially confessed before being transferred to Muang Surat Thani Police Station, where he faces charges of theft or receiving stolen property.

Arsenal claimed three vital points that improved their chances of capturing the Premier League title after visiting West Ham United in the London Derby, a dramatic encounter that required VAR's intervention during the closing stages of the English Premier League 2025-26 season on May 10. West Ham United opened their doors at the London Stadium to welcome Arsenal. From the opening nine minutes, Arsenal nearly broke through when Declan Rice sent a corner from the left flank to the far post where Leandro Trossard jumped and headed, only to see Mads Hermansen deflect it away. West Ham's defense cleared the ball but it returned to Trossard, whose shot struck the post. In the 22nd minute, Rice launched a free kick from the left wing into the box where Ricardo Calafiori nodded and nearly beat the goalkeeper, but Konstantinos Mavropanos intervened with his foot to deny the attempt. In the 45th minute, Aaron Wan-Bissaka received the ball on the right flank and sent it into the penalty area for Valentín Castellanos, whose powerful shot was brilliantly saved by David Raya, keeping the score 0-0 at halftime.

In the second half at the 75th minute, West Ham had a brief chance when Jarrod Bowen controlled the ball and cut inward on the right side of the penalty box before crossing, but the ball deflected toward goal and Raya had to tip it away. In the 78th minute, Matheus Fernandes received the ball and clashed with Pablo, allowing Fernandes to enter a wide-open penalty area, but his shot was superbly blocked by Raya's positioning. In the 83rd minute, Martin Ødegaard created space and passed to Leandro Trossard, who fired past the block of a West Ham player, sending the ball into the net to give Arsenal a 1-0 lead.

In the 90th+5 minute, a dramatic moment unfolded when West Ham earned a corner from the right flank. Jarrod Bowen crossed into the box and Arsenal failed to clear, allowing Callum Wilson to fire a shot that appeared to cross the goal line. However, the referee consulted VAR and determined that Pablo had used his arm to block David Raya's jump for the ball in the six-yard box, ruling it a foul. West Ham was denied the goal, and Arsenal secured a narrow 1-0 victory.

After 36 matches, Arsenal increased their points to 79 and maintained their lead, sitting five points ahead of second-placed Manchester City, though Arsenal has played one more match. West Ham remained on 36 points in 18th place, desperately fighting to avoid relegation. This result left only two teams in the drop zone—West Ham and 17th-place Tottenham Hotspur—as 15th-place Nottingham Forest and 16th-place Leeds United held a 7-point advantage over West Ham, but West Ham had only two remaining matches to play.

Other results: Burnley drew with Aston Villa 2-2, Crystal Palace drew with Everton 2-2, and Nottingham Forest drew with Newcastle United 1-1.
