Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to an ‘immediate’ ceasefire following weeks of escalating border clashes. A joint statement released by both nations confirmed the agreement, aiming to halt the fierce fighting that has resulted in casualties on both sides.
The truce comes after a period of heightened tensions and intermittent skirmishes near the Preah Vihear temple, a UNESCO World Heritage site claimed by both countries. While details of the ceasefire agreement remain limited, it signifies a crucial step towards de-escalation.
Recent reports indicated continued clashes even as ceasefire talks were underway, highlighting the fragility of the situation. The agreement represents a renewed commitment to resolving the long-standing border dispute through diplomatic channels. The immediate impact of the ceasefire will be closely monitored to assess its durability and pave the way for further negotiations.
