BANGKOK (Reuters) -A Thai soldier was injured by a landmine near the Cambodian border on Tuesday, the Thai army said, days after the Southeast Asian neighbours agreed to a ceasefire following last month's deadlyfive-day conflict.

The soldier's left ankle was severely injured when he stepped on the mine while patrolling along a routine border route about 1 km (half a mile) from Ta Moan Thom temple in Thailand's Surin province, the army said in a statement.
