At least 33 people have been killed and more than 168,000 forced to flee their homes as deadly clashes along the Thailand-Cambodia border enter a third day. Sky News
Tensions between Cambodia and Thailand exploded into deadly border clashes this week, killing at least 13 and displacing over 170,000. Cambodia has urgently called for an immediate ceasefire, citing a desire for a peaceful resolution. The conflict flared near the disputed Preah Vihear and Prasat Ta Muen Thom temples, ancient religious sites turned battlegrounds. Artillery and rocket fire were exchanged, with accusations flying at the United Nations Security Council.
Thailand blamed Cambodia for "inhumane" attacks, while Cambodia argued that Thailand initiated the violence. A century-old land dispute—rooted in colonial maps and contested rulings—has resurfaced, reigniting fears of a broader war. The 2013 ICJ ruling gave control of the 11th-century Preah Vihear temple to Cambodia, yet Thailand continues to dispute surrounding territory. With both militaries mobilized and thousands fleeing their homes, the region teeters on the edge of a larger humanitarian crisis.

The Thailand-Cambodia border has erupted into deadly violence, with over 130,000 civilians displaced and at least 16 killed as military clashes intensify near the ancient temple cluster of Preah Vihear and Ta Muen Thom. The historic dispute—rooted in colonial-era maps and a 1962 ICJ ruling—has turned the Emerald Triangle into a modern warzone. With F-16s deployed and artillery pounding civilian areas, both nations refuse to de-escalate, risking a broader Southeast Asian war amid rising nationalist fervor and global concern.

Thailand has declared a state of emergency in eight eastern border districts and imposed martial law as its deadly conflict with Cambodia intensifies. With 14 dead—including 13 civilians—and over 120,000 displaced, tensions are spiraling. Cambodia has downgraded diplomatic ties, accusing Thailand of aggression and violating a Malaysian-brokered truce. As Thailand shuts land borders and rejects international mediation, fears of an all-out war grow. Both sides trade blame while global calls for de-escalation and ceasefire negotiations continue to mount.
