Thailand and Cambodia agreed to “the immediate and unconditional ceasefire”

Thailand and Cambodia agreed to a “immediate and unconditional shooting” after five days of fighting on their borders, who killed at least 33 people and displaced tens of thousands.

“This is a first vital step to cancel the escalation and restore peace and security,” said Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, who is surrounded by his Thai counterparts and Kambodians, as he declared that hostilities will end in the middle of the night.

Thailand initially refused to mediate, but agreed after US President Donald Trump said that the tariff negotiations would not go until “the fighting stopped.”

Tensions are discovered on the border conflict, which dates back to a century in May, after the Kambudi soldier was killed in a clash.

Thailand imposed restrictions on citizens and tourists who head to Cambodia across Earth, while Cambodia has banned some imports from Thailand, including fruits, power and services on the Internet. Local Cambodian outlets stated that hundreds of thousands of workers have returned from Thailand since May.

The situation escalated last week, after a Thai soldier lost his leg in an explosion to bundle the Earth. Thailand closed some border crossings with Cambodia, expelled its ambassador and summoned its own.

The two sides exchanged fire in early Thursday, each of them led to the other that had raised the conflict that has now killed more than 30 people on both sides.

Many victims on the Thai side were civilians in the villages that struck the missiles, according to the Thai army. Cambodia said that 13 people have been killed so far next to them, including eight civilians.

The shells and missiles continued to land in both countries even with peace talks.

Anwar said Malaysia and other members of the regional bloc, the Association of Southeast Asia or Asian countries, was at hand to help monitor the ceasefire.

The Cambodia Prime Minister Hun Manit described it as a very good meeting that he hoped to stop the fighting immediately. Cambodia has been pressuring to stop the shooting since Friday, as its forces, which were conducted by the Thai army, have been returned.

The PM PHOMTAMAYACHAI spoke for a short period, and promised to honor the ceasefire.

He also thanked the two leaders, the United States and China, who attended the representatives of the talks. Thailand and Cambodia are trying to negotiate a trade agreement with Washington, and China remains an important commercial partner with influence.

It will take several days to implement a withdrawal. The forces were verified from both sides and to get to cool down, given the destruction and loss of lives over the past five days.

They told them the older people near the Thai border who lived through the bombing during the Cambodian Civil War in the eighties of the last century, that the BBC last week was the worst they suffered.

The Thai army said on Sunday that nearly 140,000 civilians were evacuated to shelters in seven provinces.

In Cambodia, where the press is strongly restricted, the pro -state Khmer Times reported a spokesman for the Ministry of Defense, who said that about 135,000 people along the border were transferred on Sunday.

The 75 -year -old Cambodian woman who was evacuated to a BBC shelter earlier on Monday was still safe because she could hear Thai drones that fly over tents.

She said she wanted to “see the war stop this evening.”
