Clashes Between Thailand and Cambodia Erupt Again After Trump-Brokered Ceasefire
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fighting between Thailand and Cambodia has erupted again after Thailand
launched airstrikes Monday along its disputed border with Cambodia. A
Thai soldier and four Cambodian civilians were killed in the renewed
fighting, as both sides accuse each other of breaching a ceasefire deal
brokered by President Trump back in October. Earlier this year, at least
48 people were killed and 300,000 were forced to flee their homes in the
five-day conflict. This is the spokesperson from the Cambodian Defense
Ministry.

Gen. Maly Socheata: "The second invasion activity by the Thai side shows
clearly their intention to grab their neighbor's land using a unilateral
map and using force to change borders."
