Cambodian troops have moved five BM-21 multiple rocket launcher vehicles near the Thai border ahead of the International Court of Justice's decision on Cambodia's complaint against Thailand, a Thai military source said.
The source said the rocket launcher vehicles were deployed near Phrea Vihear Temple.
The source said the exact location of the launchers had yet to be detected. He said the artillery unit would be able to detect the launchers if rockets are fired at Thailand.

Is a pure speculation or B.S do Thai have Image Intelligence or IMINT Satellites no!,It should be mentioned here that some high resolution non-military Earth observation satellites have also been used for military applications. These include the ORBIMAGE-4 (Orbital imaging corporation) and the QuickBird series of satellites.
Unless Thai have Radar Imaging Satellites, I just wonder how many people buy to this.
I got the PhD in the aerospace engineering I know this subject from inside out. Many other countries including the UK, Italy, Israel, China and France have launched their
own military satellites but not Thailand.
IMINT satellites can also be classified into the following three types depending upon their
wavelength band of operation:
1. PHOTOINT or optical imaging satellites
2. Electro-optical imaging satellites
3. Radar imaging satellites
Both the PHOTOINT and the electro-optical imaging satellites were unable to take images under cloudy conditions. Radar imaging satellites overcome this problem. However, their resolution is poor when compared with the PHOTOINT and the electro-optical imaging satellites.Moreover, they suffer from the problem of ‘backscatter noise’ and are susceptible to active jamming.
There's no proof to such claim. Thai news tend to malign Cambodia. They keep mentioned "The source" said this the source said that. Let me ask : What source ? The crows ? I didn't know Thai has trained crows to be spies.
