Analysis of Thailand's Military Operation in the Cambodia-Thailand War of 2025


How Many Phases is Thailand's Operation Divided Into?


Thailand's military operation, known as Operation Strikes, during the Cambodia-Thailand War of 2025 was structured into three distinct phases. These phases were carefully designed to achieve tactical and strategic objectives while keeping the conflict limited in scope. The phases are:


1.  Phase 1: Air Superiority and Precision Strikes

2.  Phase 2: Ground Maneuvers and Territorial Control


Ground forces advanced to capture and secure key border areas, supported by artillery, to assert control over disputed territories.


3. Phase 3: Consolidation and Psychological Operations


Thailand reinforced its gains, fortified positions, and employed psychological tactics to deter further aggression and shape the conflict's narrative.


Each phase built on the previous one, ensuring a coordinated and effective campaign.



What is the Decision Goal Operation?


The decision goal operation refers to the strategic objectives that guided Thailand's military actions in Operation Strikes. These goals shaped the operation’s planning and execution, balancing military success with restraint to avoid escalation. The primary decision goals were:


Territorial Control:


Secure disputed border areas, such as Prasat Ta Muen Thom and Phu Makeua, to strengthen Thailand’s sovereignty claims and prevent future Cambodian incursions.



Deterrence


Demonstrate military superiority and resolve by delivering a decisive blow to Cambodian forces, discouraging further aggression.


Limited Scope and De-escalation:


Achieve objectives without triggering a full-scale war or inviting international intervention, maintaining a focus on rapid, contained actions.


International Legitimacy:


Present the operation as an act of self-defense, minimizing global criticism and justifying Thailand’s actions through media and psychological campaigns.


These goals ensured that Operation Strikes was both tactically successful and strategically measured, aligning military efforts with broader political and diplomatic considerations.


Conclusion



Thailand’s Operation Strikes was divided into three phases: air superiority, ground maneuvers, and consolidation with psychological operations. The decision goal operation encompassed territorial control, deterrence, limited scope, and international legitimacy, reflecting a strategy that sought to secure Thailand’s interests while avoiding a broader conflict.
