The border was originally demarcated during French colonial rule in Cambodia.<\/p>\n<p>Fighting reportedly began around 4:30 am on Friday, with Cambodian forces allegedly initiating fire. Thailand responded with artillery and F-16 airstrikes targeting Cambodian positions. Heavy fighting was reported in Thailand\u2019s Ubon Ratchathani and Surin provinces, while over 4,000 Cambodians have also been displaced.<\/p>\n<p>Cambodia accused Thailand of using cluster munitions, a claim yet to be addressed by Thai officials. A recent landmine blast injuring five Thai soldiers and an earlier May skirmish in the Emerald Triangle region have further inflamed tensions.<\/p>\n<p>Thailand\u2019s military, significantly larger and better equipped, has taken a more aggressive stance, deploying drones and air power. Meanwhile, political instability in Thailand\u2014marked by the suspension of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra\u2014has added to the uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p>International calls for restraint have been issued by both China and the United States, but the border remains volatile with no signs of immediate resolution.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>14 People Dead, Over 100,000 Evacuated as Thailand Cambodia Border Conflict Escalates Border tensions
