No, but there's a scene where two very heavily drugged people kiss, which might still be triggering even though there's no assault

No seizures, but some unconscious scenes: for example, Winston falls forward unto his face unexpectedly and makes gasping/choking sounds and remains unresponsive.

about 20 children and teenagers are abducted at the end of the film - most heart wrenching being minho as thomas desperately tries to run after him while screaming his name and newt and fry watch on in horror.

two characters crawl through vents multiple times in the first half hour or so of the film - the final time, thomas is desperately trying to get back to the dorm to save his friends, and is seen crawling frantically through the vents.

a character is injured by a zombie like creature and, not wanting to turn, asks his friends to kill him. newt leaves him a gun. the suicide is not shown on screen but the gunshot is heard and the rest of the gladers stop and look back.

A military truck is driven into an operating helicopter which is presumed to have people in. It is brief and we do not see people being hit.
