Thailand recorded 3.12 million foreign tourist arrivals from Jan 1 to July 26, a government spokesman said on Tuesday, as the vital tourism sector picks up following an easing of pandemic restrictions.

The tourists included 76,739 visitors from Russia, Thanakorn Wangboonkongchana said in a statement. He said the government was aiming for 1 million tourists from Russia but did not give a time frame.
