Accident Lorry Slams Into Army Bus, Leaving One Dead and 19 Injured
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A ten-wheeled lorry ploughed into the rear of a stationary army bus on Route 401 in Sichon District, Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, leaving one person dead and 19 injured. The incident occurred in Moo 13, Thung Prang sub-district, near the village of Ban Thanon Phat. According to police reports, the lorry, which was carrying two people, veered off course and crashed into the back of a parked bus belonging to the Sichon Special Forces Training Camp. The army vehicle was carrying 22 personnel who had been returning from a volunteer activity in the local area. Pol. Col. Bunchoen Lhamprajowpong, superintendent of Sichon Police Station, confirmed that 19 soldiers sustained injuries and were immediately taken to Sichon Hospital for treatment. Three other military personnel were unharmed. The truck driver reportedly fled the scene on foot, abandoning the wrecked vehicle. His passenger, who sustained critical injuries and was trapped inside the lorry’s cabin, was rescued by emergency workers but later succumbed to his wounds at the hospital. Major Somsak Klapwila, commander of the Sichon training unit, said the army bus had parked briefly by the roadside when the lorry driver, allegedly speeding and swerving erratically, struck it from behind. Eyewitnesses at the scene stated the lorry appeared to be moving in a zigzag pattern before the crash, raising suspicions that the driver may have fallen asleep at the wheel. Police are currently investigating the crash and are pursuing legal action against the fleeing driver. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-07-25 -

Border Royal Thai Marines Deploy Heavy Weapons to Trat Border Amid Escalating Tensions
Restricted picture courtesy of Matichon. In response to intensifying armed clashes along the Thai-Cambodian border in the northeastern provinces of Surin and Sisaket, the Royal Thai Navy has bolstered its military presence in Trat province, mobilising troops and heavy weaponry to reinforce border security. On the morning of 24 July, a high-level emergency meeting was convened at the Royal Thai Marine Task Force Headquarters in Trat. The provincial security command summoned military leaders and local administrative officials, including district chiefs from border areas, to evaluate the evolving security situation and formulate coordinated response strategies. The military build-up covers critical border zones in Bo Rai District—specifically its three border-adjacent sub-districts—as well as four sub-districts in Mueang Trat and three in Khlong Yai. Troop deployments include Marine Ranger Control Unit 1 in Bo Rai, Unit 3 in Ban Khao Lan, Mueang District, and Task Force 182 in Ban Hat Lek, Khlong Yai. All units are now on heightened alert and under orders to respond immediately to any escalation. In a show of civilian support for defence preparations, Mr Kittiphong Yoolao, Mayor of Nong Samed Subdistrict Municipality and an alumnus of Uthenthawai College, oversaw the donation of student-constructed concrete bunkers to local municipalities in Bo Rai. These are to be installed along strategic points, with further reinforcements expected in the coming days. Meanwhile, Ms. Kitprapha Prasitwet, Mayor of Hat Lek Subdistrict and owner of the S. Kridtarawan shipping terminal, expressed concern over the impact on cross-border maritime trade. While commerce has thus far continued as normal, the deteriorating security landscape has raised fears of an imminent closure. “Should the authorities issue a suspension of trade, we will comply, but it will inevitably affect our income,” she said. By 9:00 a.m., Royal Thai Marine Task Force 182 ordered the full closure of the permanent checkpoint at Ban Hat Lek, halting all cross-border travel. Just two hours later, between 30 and 40 Cambodian students studying in Thai border schools were repatriated through the closed checkpoint, escorted by officials following the morning’s clashes. Though the land border remains sealed, limited sea trade continues. However, exporters must now liaise directly with their Cambodian counterparts to determine if goods can still be received safely on the other side. As the Thai-Cambodian border situation remains volatile, both military and civilian stakeholders in Trat remain on edge, preparing for the possibility of further escalation and broader regional impact.
