Phuket and Phang Nga beaches were the scenes of intrigue yesterday as two unidentified objects emerged from the sea, sparking a wave of speculation and curiosity among locals and tourists alike.

Karon Beach in Phuket was the first to experience this unusual occurrence. The local lifeguard on duty found an unfamiliar object and promptly alerted the mayor of Tambon Karon, Jadet Wicharasorb. This object, seemingly constructed of fibreglass, weighed a hefty 100 kilogrammes and had cables attached. Notably, it bore what appeared to be a serial number and was adorned with small seashells.
