🇹🇭 🇰🇭 An extremely detailed map of Thai and Cambodian military buildup along the Northern border of the two countries over the past year. Much of the Cambodian buildup occurred prior to July, and most of the Thai buildup has taken place since.
⛰️ “By and large, Thailand appears to have focused on building accessibility to more areas of the border, whereas Cambodia has fortified specific points, with fortifications around O’Smach and Chong Sangam specifically occurring without much contestation.”
⚡️ “Overall, especially considering the scale of road-building through the forest, Thailand has expanded their presence more significantly (especially over the past 5 months) at the border. The most significant of these, from my view, is the plateau-edge between Phu Makhuea and Phlan Hin Paet Ko. In this area, it appears that Thai forces have cut off Cambodian supply to the top of the plateau, and largely taken over these positions.”
