Event Summary

A long-running border conflict between Cambodia and Thailand has reignited, leading to casualties and displacement. Despite US President Donald Trump's announcement of a ceasefire agreement, Cambodia accused Thailand of continuing airstrikes on its territory. The conflict stems from a colonial-era border dispute and has seen previous ceasefires brokered by the United States, China, and Malaysia. Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet have both engaged with Donald Trump, but their accounts of the truce differ, with Thailand blaming Cambodia for violating previous agreements and Cambodia advocating for peaceful resolutions and verification of aggression.
