ThailandCambodia Fighting Intensifies With Thai Civilian Killed and Fuel Route Cut

Bangkok dismisses ceasefire claims, signaling no letup despite mediation efforts.

Overview

  • Thailand reported its first civilian death from the conflict after a rocket fired from Cambodia killed a 63-year-old man in Si Sa Ket province.
  • Cambodia said Thai F-16s carried out strikes in Siem Reap province near areas housing displaced people and alleged deeper incursions and increased use of cluster munitions.
  • Thailand halted fuel shipments through the Chong Mek crossing into Laos over concerns supplies were being diverted to Cambodian forces and is weighing limits on Thai vessels in high-risk Cambodian waters.
  • The Thai army said there is no ceasefire despite President Donald Trump’s announcement of a truce, as both sides report ongoing clashes using drones, rockets, artillery and air power across multiple border points.
  • Authorities reported at least 38 deaths over the past eight days and more than half a million people displaced, including 403,601 in Cambodia cited by its information minister.
