MONGKOL BOREY, BANTEAY MEANCHEY, CAMBODIA - DEC. 18: Civilians displaced by ongoing clashes along the Thailand-Cambodia border stayed in open areas in Mongkol Borey, Cambodia, on Thursday, Dec. 18.More than half a million Cambodians including infants, children, pregnant mothers and elderly people have been displaced in Cambodia as the Thai-Cambodian border conflict forced them to flee dangerous areas.Hostilities between the two Southeast Asian nations resumed earlier this month, with them trading missile strikes and artillery rounds along border areas, killing civilians and soldiers on both sides.The renewed clashes followed a cease-fire agreement brokered by US President Donald Trump and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim after a period of military escalation linked to territorial disputes between Thailand and Cambodia.Clashes continued in border areas between Thai and Cambodian forces on Thursday, Dec. 18, following tensions that flared again in early December between the two Southeast Asian countries.Renewed border clashes between Thailand and Cambodia have killed at least 52 people on both sides since the conflict reignited in early December.Cambodia’s Defense Ministry said Thai forces carried out artillery attacks and drone strikes in the border region, according to local media.The ministry added that Cambodian forces responded by firing BM-21 rockets at Thai positions.The Thai army, however, said intermittent clashes continued across border areas, involving mortars, tanks and drones.(Footage by Daniel Ceng /Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
