Fierce clashes erupted again between Thailand and Cambodia near the disputed Ta Kwai temple, marking the deadliest border conflict in over a decade. At least 33 people have died, including civilians, just hours after Thailand claimed a ceasefire had been “agreed in principle.” Trump, attempting to play peacemaker, said on Truth Social he spoke with Cambodian PM Hun Manet and planned to call Thailand’s acting leader.
However, violence surged again—casting doubt on his claims. Mass evacuations have followed: over 131,000 displaced in Thailand and 37,600 in Cambodia. The UN has expressed deep concern and offered to mediate. The roots of the clash lie in decades-old disputes over temple territories. Reports suggest both sides may have used banned cluster munitions. The crisis has drawn global attention and sparked fears of full-scale war in Southeast Asia.

Thailand’s border conflict with Cambodia has entered its third day, leaving around 100 Cambodian soldiers dead as Thai forces unleash airstrikes and cluster bombs. Cambodia vows “brutal revenge” and plans to drag Thailand to the UN, accusing it of targeting civilians and violating international law. Heavy fighting continues in the Phra Vihear region, displacing over 100,000 Thai civilians while Cambodian villages face Thai F-16 raids. As rockets and artillery pound strategic sites, ASEAN faces mounting pressure to intervene in the worst border clash in years.

Tensions exploded at the United Nations as the U.S. directly accused China of helping Russia prolong its war in Ukraine. In a fiery address, acting U.S. Ambassador Dorothy Shea demanded Beijing halt all dual-use exports fueling Moscow’s deadly missile and drone strikes. Shea exposed the recurring use of Chinese-made components in Russian weapons despite China’s public denials. Beijing hit back with fury.
Chinese deputy U.N. envoy Geng Shuang dismissed the claims, asserting China is not a party to the conflict and has implemented strict export controls. But mounting evidence, including covert Chinese drone engine exports and reports quoting Chinese officials admitting they “cannot afford for Russia to lose,” suggests otherwise. As China and Russia’s wartime partnership deepens, Zelensky has raised the alarm and Putin prepares to visit Beijing in September. What’s really going on behind closed doors?

The Drowning Prevention Awareness campaign, launched on World Drowning Prevention Day (25 July), is a heartfelt initiative by the Hemant Bala Advaitha (HBA) Foundation. Sparked by the tragic loss of 18-year-old music prodigy Advaitha Verma—who drowned in Pawna Lake in India's Pune, in June 2024—his parents Sudesh Verma and Renu Kaul Verma turned their grief into purpose. This Drowning Prevention Awareness campaign aims to educate, inform and prevent such avoidable tragedies nationwide. Backed by the WHO and inspired by the UN resolution of 2021, the Drowning Prevention Awareness movement highlights the urgent need for safety, education and community action.
Oneindia's Pankaj Mishra brings this report.
