Thai soldiers have been injured multiple times by landmine blasts near the disputed border with Cambodia amid a fragile ceasefire between the two countries. On August 9, 2025, three Thai soldiers were wounded by a landmine in Sisaket province while on patrol, just days after Thailand and Cambodia agreed to a ceasefire aimed at ending their deadliest military clashes in decades. This incident marked the third such injury in recent weeks. Thailand has accused Cambodia of planting new landmines in violation of the ceasefire agreement, allegations that Cambodia has denied through its Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Chum Sounry. The tension remains high as the two neighbors have allowed ASEAN observers to monitor the truce following clashes that displaced over 300,000 people. On August 12, another Thai soldier was injured by a landmine near the border, with the Thai military reiterating accusations against Cambodia and warning it may exercise the right of self-defense if incidents continue. Cambodia, however, has accused Thailand of violating the bilateral agreement through covert actions. The ongoing landmine incidents threaten the fragile peace deal established after last month's five-day conflict.
