Thai Military Drone Illegally Flies in Cambodian Airspace

Phnom Penh (3 June 2025): The Cambodian Military at the frontline in northern part of Cambodia early this week has successfully intercepted a Thai drone violating the Cambodian territory by flying over frontline areas for conducting surveillance on Cambodian military positions.
According to a Cambodian report from the border, Cambodian soldiers stationed at the frontline in Preah Vihear province intercepted a drone flying in Cambodian airspace for reconnaissance purposes yesterday afternoon.
Based on the assessments, the drone was deployed by the Thai military to gather intelligence on the deployment and movement of Cambodian forces.
Also Monday, Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen warned Thailand not to build any trench near a disputed border area within Cambodian land.
“We have learned that they are building a trench […] They may prepare within their own territory, but they must not come and build on my land—that is all,” Hun Sen added.
