Thailand’s defense forces conducted airstrikes on Cambodian territory early Monday, December 8, following renewed border clashes. The strikes targeted Cambodian military depots in the Chong En Ma Pass area, which Thai officials claimed stored artillery and mortars used against Thai troops and civilians. Major General Winthai Suvari, head of the Thai military’s public affairs office, confirmed the operation, describing it as a response to a Cambodian attack that killed one Thai soldier and injured two others the previous day.
Cambodia’s military confirmed the airstrikes, stating they occurred around 5:04 a.m. local time and hit army installations. Cambodian officials accused Thailand of ongoing provocations along the border. No immediate reports of casualties or damage were released. The clashes prompted Thailand to evacuate thousands of residents from four border provinces—Buri Ram, Surin, Si Sa Ket, and Ubon Ratchathani—with CNN reporting that up to 70% of border communities have been relocated.
The renewed hostilities raise fears of a wider conflict between the two Southeast Asian neighbors, who have a long history of territorial disputes near ancient temple zones.
