On the morning of January 29, a cluster munition exploded along Road 58 in Buss Thom village, Kouk Khpos commune, Banteay Ampil district, Oddar Meanchey. SN employees installing electricity lines stepped on the unexploded remnant of the past Cambodia–Thailand war. Three SN employees suffered serious and minor injuries, according to a Facebook post by CMAC Director-General Heng Ratana.
He renewed an appeal to the public, private sector and all state units working in areas affected by the border conflict to seek coordination with local authorities or CMAC units working on site to prevent accidents involving explosive remnants of war.
