Overview

  • Cambodian officials say Thai fire in Prey Chan, Banteay Meanchey, killed one civilian and wounded three.
  • The Royal Thai Army says Cambodian troops shot into Sa Kaeo and Thai forces returned warning fire, reporting no Thai casualties.
  • Bangkok paused implementation of the October peace declaration witnessed by U.S. President Donald Trump after a landmine blast injured Thai soldiers.
  • Provincial authorities evacuated roughly 250 families from Prey Chan, and Cambodia requested an independent investigation and filed a formal protest.
  • ASEAN-linked observers visited the border as both sides trade blame and the demining and weapons pullback pledged under the pact stall.
