On January 6, Cambodia’s Ministry of Interior clarified and rejected claims by some Thai media outlets that “Thai naval troops found and confiscated a Cambodian arms depot inside a casino”. The ministry said the reports were seriously inaccurate, inconsistent with the actual situation and misleading to the public.
The ministry said the location was not a casino at all, but the Road 56 land border police checkpoint within Cambodian sovereign territory, a lawful law-enforcement facility. It urged the parties concerned to stop spreading false information to avoid misunderstandings and unnecessary tension.
