Jakarta. The Indonesian Embassy in Bangkok has issued a warning to Indonesian nationals residing in Thailand to remain vigilant following the outbreak of armed conflict along the Thai-Cambodian border on Thursday.

The advisory comes after a deadly exchange of fire between Thai and Cambodian troops that reportedly killed at least nine Thai civilians. The incident marks the most serious escalation of the border conflict since a May 2025 skirmish that left one Cambodian soldier dead.

The renewed violence involves rocket attacks, drone deployments, and the laying of landmines, further intensifying security concerns in the border region.

"The Indonesian Embassy in Bangkok urges Indonesian citizens in Thailand -- particularly those in Surin, Buri Ram, Si Sa Ket, Sa Kaeo, Trat, and Ubon Ratchathani provinces -- to closely monitor security developments through official sources and follow the guidance of local authorities," the embassy said in a statement posted on its official X account.

According to embassy registration data, 15 Indonesian nationals are currently living in the Thai provinces of Trat, Sa Kaeo, and Ubon Ratchathani, all located near the Cambodian border.

"As of now, there have been no reports of Indonesian citizens affected by the clashes. We urge all Indonesians in the area to remain alert, stay calm, and avoid travel to the Thailand-Cambodia border region," the statement added.

The embassy also reminded Indonesian citizens who have lived in Thailand for more than six months to register with Indonesia’s Foreign Ministry through the official online portal.
