CEASEFIRE AGREED
Thailand and Cambodia agree to unconditional ceasefire from midnight
SUMMARY
Cambodia and Thailand have reached an "immediate and unconditional ceasefire" starting midnight local time, as announced by Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. This decision follows days of intense fighting along their disputed border, which has resulted in at least 35 deaths and over 200 injuries.
Both countries blame each other for the escalation of violence. Despite the ceasefire agreement, clashes occurred just before the peace talks. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet and Thai acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai met in Putrajaya to mediate the situation, with plans for regional commanders to meet on July 29.
