Thailand and Cambodia to meet over cross-border conflict

Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to hold a meeting of defence officials to address the ongoing deadly violence along their shared border, following a failed ceasefire brokered by ASEAN and the US. Despite daily rocket and artillery fire, both countries remain optimistic about implementing a ceasefire, with Thailand cautioning that actions, not just announcements, are needed. ASEAN has urged both nations to exercise maximum restraint, restore trust, and allow civilians to return home safely, emphasizing the importance of dialogue and immediate cessation of hostilities.
