At least one person killed and thousands displaced by clashes between Thailand and Cambodia
The conflict between Cambodia and Thailand has a long history, but after decades of suspension, it erupted again in May last year, and these days the clashes between could jeopardize the peace agreement between the two countries in October.
The conflict between Thailand and Cambodia has escalated. According to the latest data, one Thai soldier has been killed and about 10 people injured by clashes in the last few hours on the border between the two countries.
The conflict between Thailand and Cambodia has a long history , but after decades of pause, in May 2025 the conflict broke out again on the border between the two countries, and although a truce was signed in November, after US President Donal Trump mediated, in the last few hours the conflict has erupted again.
Thai Army spokesman Winthai Suvaree has confirmed that seven citizens have been injured and attributed the attack to the Cambodian military, adding that this number could increase in the next few hours, indicating that civilians are being displaced in five provinces near the border and that more than 600 schools have been closed to ensure security.
The two countries blame the other for starting the fighting.
The Thai Army carried out air strikes against Cambodia on Monday, the day before, after accusing Thailand on Sunday of multiple attacks.
Meanwhile, Cambodian Army spokesman Maly Socheata has said that Thailand fired first and that these attacks resulted in numerous injuries in the country and many citizens being forced to leave their villages.
Malaysia peace agreement in danger
These clashes have in practice violated the peace agreement between Thailand and Cambodia in Malaysia last October, which was reached under the mediation of US President Donald Trump.
In mid-November, Thailand's Prime Minister, Anutin Charnvirakul, temporarily suspended the peace agreement due to shootings at the border, but fighting has intensified in recent hours.
Bangkok and Nom Pen have a historical rivalry for the sovereignty of some territories. To understand the conflict between the two countries, you have to go back to the colonial past of the West. Tensions with Thailand began when France turned Cambodia into its colony in 1907 and artificially drew its borders.
The years have passed, and, although in theory the colonial past has been far removed, the West is still in conflict.
