On the afternoon of 22 Oct 2026, Cambodian soldiers came close to the area, taking photos and recording videos to monitor Thai soldiers constructing a tactical road at Chong Pran in Surin Province. Thai forces had to present maps and coordinates to confirm the construction was within Thai territory.
On 23 Oct 2026, a report from Thailand's 2nd Army Area Command revealed that Cambodian soldiers closely followed Thai military activities after local citizens cooperated in building a tactical road near Boundary Marker 10 at Chong Pran, Surin Province. Several dozen Cambodian troops appeared on site to observe the construction due to concerns that the road alignment might encroach on Cambodian territory.
However, Thai soldiers clarified the situation by showing maps and coordinates to confirm that the road construction was taking place entirely within Thai borders and did not encroach upon Cambodian land.
While monitoring, Cambodian soldiers took photographs and recorded video clips to report to their commanders, maintaining observation throughout the day before withdrawing from the area later.
Regarding the construction of the road near Boundary Marker 10, Thai forces are building along the Thai-Cambodian border up to Chong Chom, Surin Province, covering over 20 kilometers. Construction has reached Boundary Marker 11. The project faces challenges due to mountainous and winding terrain, but Thailand insists the road is clearly within its territory. This incident occurred on the afternoon of 22 Oct 2026, and discussions were held to clarify the situation.
