Unknown Drones Met with Swift Counteraction by ISOC's Emergency Response Squads
Security measures along the Thai-Cambodian border have been intensified to address unidentified drone threats and illegal migrant worker movements. The Internal Security Operations Command (ISOC) has deployed rapid response teams and enhanced surveillance, working closely with the Royal Thai Army, Royal Thai Police, civil administration, and local authorities in border provinces.
The ISOC's mission includes monitoring, inspecting, and intercepting the illegal use of drones, with response measures tailored to the severity of the threat. The efforts are in line with guidelines issued by the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT). ISOC has authorized security personnel to employ electronic countermeasures or direct force to neutralize drone threats in frontline areas.
To prevent undocumented labor inflows and maintain border security, ISOC is closely monitoring illegal border crossings and movements of Cambodian migrant workers. The command has also implemented stricter controls on Cambodian migrant workers and vigilant monitoring of illegal border crossings.
The ISOC has coordinated joint operations with various agencies and community-based security networks. Community security networks and local employers are being engaged to report suspicious activity and provide intelligence. Reports can be made 24 hours a day via the ISOC Security Hotline at 1374.
In rear areas, ISOC emphasizes strict civilian safety while taking appropriate actions. The situation along the border is sensitive and could potentially affect domestic stability. These measures serve as part of a broader security framework amid ongoing tensions and efforts to maintain stability along the border, including recent diplomatic efforts to manage conflict risks.
ISOC is urging the public across the country to report any suspicious activity, particularly sightings of illegal drone use or unidentified individuals near sensitive sites. The combined efforts of ISOC and other agencies illustrate a coordinated approach targeting both aerial threats and ground-level unauthorized movements.
- In addition to addressing drone threats and illegal immigrant worker movements, the ISOC's mission also extends to monitoring and controlling the use of technology, specifically the misuse of drones, as part of their strategy to maintain domestic stability.
- The ISOC, in its efforts to monitor and control illegal activities, is not only focusing on ground-level unauthorized movements but also on the intersection of politics and business, such as the potential use of technology in illegal activities, like the misuse of gadgets for espionage or smuggling.
