Thailand Declares Martial Law In Eastern Border Provinces Amid Rising Tensions
BANGKOK, July 25 (Bernama) -- The Chanthaburi-Trat Border Defence Command on Friday declared martial law in several districts of eastern Thailand, effective immediately, following a second day of escalating Thai-Cambodian border tensions that have reportedly left at least 15 people dead. Deputy Spokesperson for the Royal Thai Navy, Rear Admiral Paratch Rattanachaipan, clarified that the imposition of martial law in parts of Chanthaburi and Trat provinces is intended to grant the military full legal authority to maintain peace and order, while assuring the public that daily life may continue as usual. bootstrap slideshow He stated that the growing tensions along the Thai-Cambodian border have raised concerns for the safety and security of residents in the affected regions. 'In response, the Chanthaburi-Trat Border Protection Command has exercised its authority under the Martial Law Act of 1914 to extend martial law to specific inland districts in both Chanthaburi and Trat,' he said in a statement issued on Friday. 'This measure enables military personnel to legally maintain order and effectively carry out critical tasks, such as designating safe zones for civilians.' He added that the decision was made by the Commander of the Border Protection Command for Chanthaburi and Trat, following ongoing developments in the area. He emphasised that residents in the affected districts can continue their daily activities as normal, as has been the case in other areas where martial law has previously been enforced. Martial law is the temporary imposition of military rule over a civilian population, typically in times of extreme emergency, war, or severe civil unrest, when the civilian authorities are deemed unable to maintain public order and safety.
