Thailand and Cambodia Dispute Incident Amid Border Ceasefire Agreement

On February 24, Thailand's army reported that Cambodian forces fired a 40 mm grenade near a Thai patrol in Sisaket province, prompting return fire and alleging a ceasefire violation. Cambodia's information minister denied the claim, calling it false and stressing commitment to the December truce. Thailand suggested the incident might involve new Cambodian troops unfamiliar with protocols. Previous clashes and ceasefire agreements have marked tensions along the Cambodia-Thailand border, with both sides exchanging accusations.
