Motorcycle Discovery Prompts Swift Action

Phuket International Airport faced a tense moment on Wednesday evening, June 25, 2025, when authorities uncovered a suspicious object inside an abandoned motorcycle. The police Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit and K-9 team launched a thorough inspection around 7 p.m., identifying a potential improvised explosive device, prompting an immediate security lockdown to protect travelers and staff.

Controlled Detonation Ensures Safety

EOD Team Neutralizes Threat

In response to the find, officials cordoned off a 200-meter radius around the motorcycle, adhering to strict safety protocols. The EOD team executed a controlled detonation to eliminate the risk, showcasing a rapid and effective strategy to maintain order at one of Thailand’s key travel hubs, ensuring no immediate danger lingered in the vicinity.

Airport Leadership Addresses Concerns

Monchai Tanod Reassures Public

Airport director Monchai Tanod confirmed the coordinated effort with Phuket provincial police, emphasizing the successful neutralization of the device. He highlighted ongoing 100% luggage screening and plans to boost surveillance in public zones, including enhanced physical checks, to reinforce passenger confidence and uphold security standards across the airport in 2025.

Police Intensify Regional Security

Investigations Link to Phangnga Incident

Pol Maj Gen Sinlert Sukhum, head of Phuket provincial police, announced heightened screening at all provincial checkpoints to bolster safety measures. He urged calm among residents, noting collaboration with military and local authorities, while investigators explore possible connections to a recent Phangnga arrest involving a homemade bomb destined for Phuket, keeping security tight.

Operations Unaffected Despite Alert

Enhanced Patrols Maintain Order

Phuket Airport authorities assured the public that the incident did not disrupt flight schedules or operations, maintaining normalcy amid the scare. A statement outlined increased vehicle and individual inspections, alongside more frequent mixed patrol rounds, aiming to provide top-tier safety and peace of mind for all visitors and workers at the airport.

Ongoing Probe and Public Advisory

Closure Area Avoided for Safety

As the investigation continues, authorities are focused on uncovering the incident’s origins, with security measures remaining robust across the region. Passengers are advised to steer clear of the restricted 200-meter zone until the closure is lifted, reflecting a proactive approach to ensure a secure environment while the probe into this unusual event progresses in June 2025.
