Despite Ceasefire, Fight over Temple in Asia Grinds On
THAILAND-CAMBODIA BORDER REGION, JUL 30 – The five-day conflict over border temples displaced over 300,000 people and killed at least 43, with ceasefire breaches reported by both Thailand and Cambodia, officials said.
- On Wednesday, July 30, 2025, Thailand's military accused Cambodian forces of breaching the ceasefire at three locations, warning of a stronger response.
- The dispute traces back to a vague demarcation set by French colonial administrators in 1907, boiling over on July 24, 2025.
- The human toll includes at least 15 Thai troops and civilians, and eight Cambodian civilians and five soldiers, with approximately 190,000 displaced on the Thai side and nearly 169,000 in Cambodia.
- Thailand has suspended all military cooperation with Cambodia, including exchange programs and policy coordination, and invited military attaches to inspect the affected sites.
- Uncertainty remains ahead of the General Border Committee meeting on August 4 in Cambodia, as the ceasefire agreement paves the way for high-level talks.
