Thai Army presents evidence Cambodia laid new PMN-2 landmines, cites Ottawa Convention report


BANGKOK: The Royal Thai Army has presented evidence that Cambodia has laid PMN-2 landmines on Thai territory, citing documents submitted to the Ottawa Convention in 2024 indicating that Cambodia possessed over 3,700 PMN-2 and other types of landmines, ostensibly for training purposes.

This follows Cambodia’s denial on Wednesday (Aug 27) of recent incidents in which Thai soldiers were injured by landmines. Cambodia claimed it had not deployed new mines and maintained compliance with its obligations under the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention (Ottawa Convention).
