Thailand suspends truce deal with Cambodia after troops injured by land mine
Latest on fragile Thailand Cambodia peace deal as troops injured
- Thailand announced it would cease all activities agreed under its US-brokered ceasefire with Cambodia.
- This decision followed a land mine explosion on Monday that injured two Thai soldiers in the disputed border region.
- Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul stated that hostility had not decreased and that all truce actions would halt until Thailand's demands were met.
- The ceasefire, signed last month after a five-day conflict, included Thailand releasing 18 Cambodian soldiers and both nations removing weapons and land mines.
- Thailand will postpone the release of the captured Cambodian soldiers, accusing Cambodia of obstructing mine clearance and laying new mines, which Cambodia denies.
