Large numbers of telecom fraud bosses have fled Cambodia, angrily accusing Thailand of carpet-bombing before leaving: Not even a SIM card was left!
In recent days, a rare scene has appeared in Pursat Province, western Cambodia, near the Thai-Cambodian border: A group of people with non-local accents were seen dragging luggage and carrying computer servers, hastily leaving their long-time hiding places in the fraud centers.
These people are not ordinary people; they are members of criminal gangs that have long been operating in remote villages in Cambodia, engaging in cross-border telecom network fraud. The direct reason for their "hasty escape" is the air strike from Thailand.
On December 12, the Royal Thai Air Force deployed F-16 fighter jets to carry out a precision strike on a large telecom fraud park located in the Poipet area of Cambodia. On-site video showed that multiple buildings made of reinforced concrete were blown down, with thick smoke and fire blazing skyward.
According to local media reports, a fraud boss, while evacuating, was emotionally agitated and complained: "Our server, including fiber optics, was all fine, but when the Thais bombed, the entire communication link was cut! Even the SIM cards were burned to ashes!"
This air strike by Thailand precisely destroyed their communication infrastructure - including satellite antennas, 4G base station relay equipment, and even backup generators, causing the entire park's telecommunications facilities to be paralyzed instantly.
