Thai - Cambodia Conflict Cambodian Shelling Damages Rural Health Centre in Sisaket Border Clash
Picture courtesy of Matichon. A rural health centre in Kantharalak District, Sisaket Province, suffered extensive damage after being struck by Cambodian artillery during border clashes on 26 July. The shelling, which occurred at approximately 15:30, caused near-total destruction of medical equipment and significant structural damage to the Subdistrict Health Promoting Hospital (Ror Por Sor) in Saotongchai. Fortunately, no injuries or fatalities were reported, as the facility had already been evacuated due to prior hostilities in the area near the disputed Preah Vihear border zone. Medical staff, patients and most local residents had fled following ongoing exchanges of fire between Thai and Cambodian forces. When local reporters visited the scene on 27 July, they described a ghost town atmosphere. Sporadic artillery fire could still be heard in the distance, and the surrounding area appeared deserted. Only a handful of village defence volunteers (Chor Ror Bor) and local administrative officers remained on duty. Military sources stated that Cambodia has not ceased attacks and continues to deploy heavy weaponry indiscriminately across the border. The Royal Thai Army has accused the Cambodian side of intentionally targeting civilian infrastructure outside of recognised military zones. A field assessment of the damaged facility revealed artillery rounds had pierced the building, shattering windows, blowing doors off hinges and crushing much of the remaining medical equipment that had not been removed in time. Portions of the structure have begun to collapse due to the force of the explosions, and the lingering smell of gunpowder remains thick in the air. A local Chor Ror Bor volunteer described the event as devastating: “The health centre is a lifeline for villagers. It should have been protected, but instead, it became a target. The shelling spared nothing, not even essential services meant to care for the sick.” The attack has drawn concern over violations of international humanitarian norms, which prohibit the targeting of civilian facilities, particularly healthcare infrastructure.

Crime CIB Arrests Man in Violent Robbery Case Under Rama VII Bridge
Picture courtesy of CIB Officers from The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) have arrested 18-year-old Thanakorn, known by the alias “Tee Bang Kruai”, on 26 July, in connection with a violent armed robbery that left a victim seriously injured beneath the Rama VII Bridge. The arrest was ordered by Pol. Lt. Gen. Jiraphop Bhuridej, Commissioner of the CIB, and carried out under the command of Pol. Maj. Gen. Wittaya Sriprasertphap, Commander of the Crime Suppression Division, along with a coordinated team of senior officers. Tee was apprehended on a public road in Soi Rattanathibet, Nonthaburi Province, under a warrant issued by the Central Juvenile and Family Court (No. จ.24/2568 dated 2 April 2025). He faces charges of armed robbery causing grievous bodily harm, using a vehicle to commit the offence or to flee the scene, and carrying a knife in public without valid reason. The arrest stems from a brutal incident on 13 November 2024 at approximately 04:30, when a group of three assailants attacked a man under the Rama VII Bridge as he used his mobile phone. One attacker slashed the victim’s left arm with a knife before fleeing with his belongings. The case was reported to Prachachuen Police Station, which initiated an investigation using CCTV footage. A crucial lead came while the victim was hospitalised at Phra Nang Klao Hospital. In conversation, a fellow patient revealed a similar attack in the same area by a group of youths matching the same description. This prompted investigators to coordinate with Bang Kruai Police Station. On 20 November 2024, investigators identified a suspect matching the description and found several items worn by the individual that matched those reported stolen. A search of his residence uncovered additional incriminating evidence. The suspect admitted involvement and implicated others still at large. Following this, an arrest warrant was issued for Thanakorn, who had gone into hiding in Nonthaburi. The CIB team traced his location and successfully apprehended him. A background check revealed an extensive criminal record. At age 15, Tee had been involved in an attempted murder case in the Bang Phlat area. The following year, he was arrested for illegal possession of a firearm in Bang Kruai. At 17, he committed a robbery in Prachachuen, the same district as the current case. Following his arrest, Tee confessed to all charges. He was handed over to Prachachuen Police Station for formal legal proceedings. Authorities continue to pursue the remaining suspects involved in the attack. Adapted by Asean Now from Naewna 2025-07-28
