Cambodian immigration authorities deported 65 Thai nationals, including 28 women, through the Poipet international border checkpoint on the morning of September 9, 2026. According to the report, they had undergone penalties under legal procedures relating to unauthorised entry and residence before the administrative deportation.
The handover was coordinated by Brigadier General អ៊ី ចំរើន, chief of the Poipet international border checkpoint, together with Major General យឿម ម៉ាន់ from the General Department of Immigration. Siem Reap provincial security forces and local authorities also cooperated in the operation.
After completing the case documentation and administrative procedures, Cambodian authorities safely transferred the Thai nationals across the border to the Ban Khlong Luek international checkpoint in Aranyaprathet district, Sa Kaeo province, Thailand, in accordance with applicable immigration law.
