Thailand’s landmine signs removed
Tue, 15 December 2020
Nearly 100 landmine signs and red lines surrounding the area between border posts 32-33 that Thailand Mine Action Centre (TMAC) officials had deployed in Banteay Meanchey province were removed by Cambodian military officers.
Officials said the location where the posts were installed in Kouk Romiet commune’s Samaki village in the province’s Thma Puok district was not yet agreed by both parties.
Seng Thearin, deputy commander and chief of staff of the Military Region 5, told The Post on December 15 that the TMAC deployed the landmine signs and red lines earlier this month in areas that have not yet been approved by the two countries’ technical border affairs committees.
