Cambodia has called for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire with Thailand as border clashes between the two Southeast Asian neighbors escalated for a second consecutive day, AFP reports.
Amid rising tensions and continued artillery exchanges along the Cambodia-Thailand border, Cambodia has appealed for a swift and unconditional halt to the conflict, according to AFP.
Speaking after a closed-door UN Security Council meeting on Friday, Cambodia’s UN Ambassador Chhea Keo urged a peaceful resolution to the conflict. “Cambodia asked for an immediate ceasefire – unconditionally – and we also call for the peaceful solution of the dispute,” Keo was quoted as saying by AFP.
Tensions flared this week as Thai and Cambodian forces exchanged heavy artillery fire across disputed border areas, with the fighting reportedly spreading to new locations. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet claimed that Thailand had initially agreed to a ceasefire proposal from Malaysia but later pulled back from the agreement.
