Bangkok (VNA) – While Thai authorities have increased checkpoints and patrol along borders to prevent illegal entries to combat COVID-19, the Cambodian province of Takeo has locked down a village after new infection cases were continually reported.

National police chief of Thailand Suwat Jangyodsuk has ordered all police units to ramp up surveillance in order to prevent the entry of illegal migrants as the country continues to struggle against the third wave of COVID-19 infections.

Damrongsak Kittiprapat, deputy national police chief, said all police units will coordinate closely with local authorities and security agencies to curb illegal border crossings due to concerns over a possible outbreak of highly contagious coronavirus variants from neighbouring countries.
