Incident Report on the Thai-Cambodian Border Clash 2 August 2025
According to the reports from the 2nd Army Area Operations Center, the situation along the Thai-Cambodian border can be summarized as follows:
Following the detection of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or “drones,” operating in multiple areas and impacting border security, the Royal Thai Army has heightened counter-drone measures. This follows attempts to conduct aerial reconnaissance over military positions.
The Royal Thai Army, in coordination with relevant agencies, is strictly enforcing the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand’s directive issued on 29 July 2025, which prohibits all drone flights, regardless of purpose, throughout the Kingdom of Thailand. Designated military and security personnel are authorized to deploy anti-drone systems and immediately neutralize any unauthorized drones detected in violation of the order.
Facts concerning operations in the “Chong Ahn Ma” area prior to the clashes up to 28 July 2025: Thai forces had never gained control over the area surrounding the “Ta Om” monument, as Cambodian troops have consistently occupied and held the location.
On 30 July 2025, the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces escorted military attachés from 13 countries to observe the area and reported that Thai forces had secured full control over the vicinity of the ‘Ta Om’ monument. Thai forces had established operational lines in the Chong Ahn Ma area to prevent further clashes and to maintain stability in this sensitive zone. Both sides had previously agreed to establish a joint coordination point at the ‘Ta Om’ monument.

The delegation received briefings, conducted on-site inspections, and observed the impacts on Thai civilians caused by Cambodian long-range weapon attacks.
