Thailand-Cambodia Border Conflict Escalates
Update: 2025-12-14
Description
Tensions escalate between Thailand and Cambodia, with fighting spreading to new areas along their shared border. Despite earlier claims of a ceasefire, a rocket attack from Cambodia killed a Thai villager, marking the first civilian death. Both nations exchanged heavy weapons fire, with Thai forces destroying a bridge used by Cambodia to transport weapons. The conflict has deep historical roots, with competing territorial claims and a 1962 court ruling awarding sovereignty to Cambodia. Around two dozen people have been killed in the past week, and hostilities continue despite a recent claim of a ceasefire. Thailand has implemented a curfew in five districts to ensure resident safety.
