Bangkok: The Royal Thai Air Force conducted strategic bombing raids on Cambodian supply lines, deploying F-16 fighter jets to destroy the Orjik Bridge in Udon Meanchey province. This operation aimed to disrupt a critical Cambodian supply route and was complemented by successful recaptures in Trat province.
According to Thai News Agency, the Army Military Force posted a video on Facebook at 3:00 PM showing the airstrike on the Orjik Bridge located on Highway 68 in Chongkal District. The mission was prompted by detected movements of Cambodian weapons, equipment, and troops toward the frontline, posing a threat to Thailand’s sovereignty and security.
Rear Admiral Parach Rattanachaiyapan, spokesperson for the Royal Thai Navy, confirmed that, in collaboration with the Royal Thai Air Force, they successfully recaptured the Ban Tha Sen area in Chamrak Subdistrict, Mueang Trat District, and the Thmodha Casino. The operation focused on personnel safety, resulting in no Thai casualties or injuries while seizing weapons and equipment from the opposing side. The public is urged to rely on official sources for information and avoid spreading content that may compromise national security.
Meanwhile, Major General Winthai Suwaree, spokesman for the Royal Thai Army, reported receiving updates from the 2nd Army Area about the situation near Prasat Ta Kwai and Hill 350. The 2nd Army Area discovered the bodies of two soldiers, Sergeant Major Samroeng Klangprakon and Private Phanupat Sausa, who are being transported back to the rear.
