BREAKING: Tensions Escalate: Thai Troops Prepare to Launch Unauthorized Attack on Cambodian Territory Amid Internal Political Strife
Phnom Penh, August 13, 2025, 10:00 AM – In an alarming development, the Thai military is reportedly mobilizing for an impending attack on Cambodian territory, scheduled for the night of August 13 and the morning of August 14, 2025. This latest move marks a significant escalation in tensions between Thailand and Cambodia, raising concerns over regional stability.
According to reliable information obtained by Fresh News, Thai authorities have proactively undertaken emergency measures in anticipation of conflict. At 10:00 AM today, schools within Surin province's Dan village, Dan commune, Kap Cheung district were abruptly closed, and students were instructed to return home. Residents are being evacuated to secure areas, signaling the seriousness of the situation on the ground.
Sources indicate that a substantial military buildup is occurring at the Thailand-Cambodia border. The Thai army is reportedly deploying a considerable number of troops, armored vehicles, and tanks to strengthen its position and initiate a renewed armed incursion into Cambodian territory. This aggressive strategy underscores a grave potential breach of previously established peace agreements.
The planned assault comes in direct violation of the ceasefire accord reached during a high-level meeting on July 28, 2025, and contravenes the resolutions adopted at the General Boundary Committee's extraordinary session on August 7, 2025, in Malaysia. The international community has viewed these accords as pivotal to maintaining peace and stability in the region, and Thailand's actions could jeopardize the fragile balance.
Adding to the tension, Thai Acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai issued a statement addressing recent criticisms. He stated, "I have not been treated fairly either. The claim that I am siding with Cambodia is not true. Do not distort this to damage the government. Some political commentators have said that my legs should be cut off so I would know how it feels. I am going to sue everyone who distorts the facts." These remarks highlight internal tensions and the volatile political climate in Thailand amid escalating border conflicts.
This unfolding situation demands urgent attention from global leaders and international organizations to prevent further deterioration of the conflict and to uphold diplomatic channels for peaceful resolution. EACNews will continue to monitor and report on these developments as they unfold.
