An explosion on Thai territory near the Cambodian border injured four Thai soldiers, which the Thai army attributes to a recently planted landmine.
The Thai army asserts that Cambodian troops planted new PMN-2 anti-personnel landmines, citing evidence of cut border barriers and the discovery of additional mines.
Cambodia denies these accusations, claiming the exploded mine was old from its civil war and reaffirming its commitment to international agreements banning landmines.
