**Thailand has shut down checkpoints and tourist areas along its border with Cambodia
following security incidents. Impacted regions include Ubon Ratchathani, Si Sa Ket,
Surin, and surrounding areas. Travelers are advised to steer clear of these locations.**

## Visitor Advisory

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) alerts travelers about recent security events
along the Thailand–Cambodia border. Key areas like Ubon Ratchathani, Si Sa Ket, 
and Surin are affected. The Royal Thai Army has closed several checkpoints and tourist
zones to ensure safety. This includes border crossings, parks, and communities near
the frontier. These measures maintain public safety and security. Authorities will
update as conditions evolve.

and observation areas. Visitors are advised to avoid several attractions. In Ubon

Ta Muen Thom/Tod and Chong Chom are affected. In Si Sa Ket, Khao Phra Wihan National

## Travel Caution
