Ghostly sounds and fighter jets: Thailand steps up readiness for D-Day along the Cambodian border


BANGKOK: Thailand intensifies security along the Sa Kaeo border as ghostly sounds and fighter jet drills stir tension. The National Security Council approves a military plan to reclaim sovereignty after Cambodian encroachment, with troops, police, and defence leaders on high alert.

It is now the fourth day since the Oct 10 deadline set by Parinya Phothisat, Governor of Sa Kaeo, who formally notified the Governor of Banteay Meanchey in Cambodia to submit an evacuation plan for Cambodian villagers occupying Thai territory north of the red line at Ban Nong Chan and Ban Nong Ya Kaew in Khok Sung District, Sa Kaeo Province.
