Cambodge Soir06-10-2008
The incident happened this morning, Monday 6 October, during a new Thai incursion on Cambodian territory. It was communicated by Phay Siphan, spokesperson for the Council of Ministers.
Both Thai soldiers were part of a 100-man strong detachment which was on its way to the place where last Friday’s incident took place. They stepped on a landmine at 10 minutes interval, around 10.20am, at 150 or 200 meters from the area in question, still on Cambodian territory. A Thai helicopter picked up the victims. One lost a leg and the other one lost both.
However, the atmosphere remained peaceful. Neither Cambodia nor Thailand reacted after this event.
