side violated the ceasefire agreement with disturbances and weapon attacks
217
00:14:31,200 –> 00:14:35,879
found in multiple areas. The Thai side therefore responded accordingly
218
00:14:35,919 –> 00:14:40,000
to the situation. Regarding the meeting between military unit leaders
219
00:14:40,080 –> 00:14:43,480
in the area, the army spokesperson revealed that efforts to
220
00:14:43,519 –> 00:14:47,559
proceed with the meeting continue. The Royal Thai Army received
221
00:14:47,600 –> 00:14:50,960
a report from the Second Army Area regarding the situation
222
00:14:51,080 –> 00:14:55,279
along the Thai Cambodia border. After the Thai side complied
223
00:14:55,320 –> 00:14:58,600
with the ceasefire agreement after twenty four hundred hours and
224
00:14:58,679 –> 00:15:03,039
closely monitored and tracked the frontline situation. Military units in
225
00:15:03,080 –> 00:15:07,600
the area reported Cambodian military operations in multiple incidents throughout
226
00:15:07,600 –> 00:15:11,320
the night until this morning. Disturbances and the use of
227
00:15:11,399 –> 00:15:14,960
supporting weapons firing into Thai territory were found in several
228
00:15:15,000 –> 00:15:20,039
areas including chong Boc Area, chong An Area, Samtae Area,
229
00:15:20,320 –> 00:15:25,080
Prasatta Kwai area, and fumar Hua area. The Thai side
230
00:15:25,120 –> 00:15:29,039
responded to the situation by deploying frontline forces and using
231
00:15:29,080 –> 00:15:34,759
supporting weapons to suppress the Cambodian military operations. Regarding this case,
232
00:15:35,200 –> 00:15:39,799
Major General Wintai Subri Army spokesperson issued a statement that
233
00:15:40,320 –> 00:15:43,799
following the joint agreement reached between the Thai government and
234
00:15:43,840 –> 00:15:47,759
the Cambodian government to seize military combat along the border
235
00:15:47,799 –> 00:15:51,480
area effective from twenty four hundred hours on the twenty
236
00:15:51,519 –> 00:15:55,320
eighth of July twenty twenty five, to create an opportunity
237
00:15:55,399 –> 00:16:00,000
for a peaceful atmosphere, reduce tensions, and promote cooperation between
238
00:16:00,200 –> 00:16:04,320
neighboring countries. The Royal Thai Army clarified that the Thai
239
00:16:04,440 –> 00:16:07,840
side strictly complied with the said agreement by implementing a
240
00:16:07,879 –> 00:16:11,720
cease fire in the Thai Cambodia border area immediately upon
241
00:16:11,759 –> 00:16:15,639
the designated time, with sincere intentions and firm adherents to
242
00:16:15,679 –> 00:16:20,519
the mutual commitment agreed upon by both governments. However, it
243
00:16:20,600 –> 00:16:23,799
is deeply regrettable that at the designated time, the Thai
244
00:16:23,919 –> 00:16:28,159
side continued to detect that the Cambodian side had used
245
00:16:28,159 –> 00:16:32,399
weapons to attack Thai territory at multiple points, which constitutes
246
00:16:32,399 –> 00:16:35,440
a deliberate violation of the agreement with the intention of
247
00:16:35,519 –> 00:16:39,759
destroying the system of mutual trust. The Royal Thai Army
248
00:16:39,799 –> 00:16:43,399
therefore condemns such actions and the Thai side finds it
249
00:16:43,480 –> 00:16:47,480
necessary to implement appropriate retaliatory measures under the legitimate right
250
00:16:47,559 –> 00:16:51,399
of self defense. The Royal Thai Army affirms that the
251
00:16:51,440 –> 00:16:54,480
Thai side did not use military force for aggression, but
252
00:16:54,559 –> 00:17:00,840
to defend against encroachment and maintain national sovereignty under international rules. Additionally,
253
00:17:01,159 –> 00:17:05,519
the Army spokesperson disclosed regarding the scheduled meeting between military
254
00:17:05,640 –> 00:17:08,519

held this morning, that efforts continue to proceed with discussions
256
00:17:12,319 –> 00:17:16,359

00:18:27,920 –> 00:18:31,400
rejected the allegations made by a spokesperson for the Royal
276
00:18:31,480 –> 00:18:35,559
Thai Army who accused Cambodian forces of continuing to open
277
00:18:35,640 –> 00:18:39,839
fire despite the agreed ceasefire. Speaking at a press briefing,
278
00:18:40,240 –> 00:18:44,599
Ministry spokesperson Mainly Soakki To said the Royal Cambodian Armed
279
00:18:44,640 –> 00:18:49,759
Forces RCAF have been strictly implementing the ceasefire agreement made
280
00:18:49,839 –> 00:18:54,000
between the two countries leaders. We strongly reject the claims
281
00:18:54,039 –> 00:18:58,359
made by the Thai military spokesperson who alleged gunfire exchanges
282
00:18:58,400 –> 00:19:03,480
and violations of the ceasefire agreement. She said, Cambodian forces
283
00:19:03,519 –> 00:19:07,480
have strictly implemented and will continue to strictly implement the
284
00:19:07,640 –> 00:19:11,440
army commands, instructions and the ceasefire agreement which took effect
285
00:19:11,480 –> 00:19:15,519

Office of the Prime Minister of Cambodia indicated that the
287
00:19:19,200 –> 00:19:23,000
Cambodian PM says there’s no time to rest despite ceasefire.
288
00:19:23,720 –> 00:19:27,240
Prime Minister Sandek Moha Borva the pad han Mane said
289
00:19:27,279 –> 00:19:30,359
this morning that he cannot rest even though the frontline
290
00:19:30,440 –> 00:19:33,799
situation has eased following the ceasefire that took effect at
291
00:19:33,799 –> 00:19:37,680

292
00:19:37,759 –> 00:19:41,519
Thailand at the special meeting in Malaysia yesterday. In a
293
00:19:41,599 –> 00:19:45,480

on the ground, supporting frontline forces, implementing appropriate policies for
296
00:19:54,920 –> 00:19:59,359
wounded and fallen soldiers, assisting hundreds of thousands of displaced people,
297
00:19:59,680 –> 00:20:02,519
and a a dressing the large scale return of Cambodian

workers from Thailand. He added that his top priority in
299
00:20:06,440 –> 00:20:09,440
recent days has been to find the swift solution to
300
00:20:09,559 –> 00:20:13,039
end the fighting in order to save lives, both military
301
00:20:13,079 –> 00:20:17,680
and civilian in the conflict zones. The sooner the fighting stops,
302
00:20:17,960 –> 00:20:21,920
the sooner the affected people, especially the displaced, can return
303
00:20:21,960 –> 00:20:25,720
to their homes and resume their livelihoods, he wrote. At
304
00:20:25,759 –> 00:20:28,839
a time when the nation and our people are facing hardship,
305
00:20:29,119 –> 00:20:32,640
I may look a little older because of the gray hairs,
306
00:20:33,000 –> 00:20:35,880
he joked. Even if I look older and feel a
307
00:20:35,920 –> 00:20:38,759
little less strong than I did ten years ago, my
308
00:20:38,920 –> 00:20:43,720
determination to face these challenges remains unwavering. Let’s wait until
309
00:20:43,759 –> 00:20:46,400
the army and people are safe and the country has
310
00:20:46,480 –> 00:20:49,039
returned to peace. Then it won’t be too late to
311
00:20:49,119 –> 00:20:54,799
dye my hair. Sandek Hakamo Hussein Arpad Tekohunsen, President of

Cambodia Ministry of Information reported that the Ministry of Labour
331
00:22:11,519 –> 00:22:16,559
and Vocational Training said approximately two hundred three thousand, seven
332
00:22:16,640 –> 00:22:20,559

twenty fourth and July twenty seventh, twenty twenty five. Notably,
334
00:22:25,680 –> 00:22:30,079
one hundred twenty thousand, four hundred thirty eight Cambodians returned
335
00:22:30,200 –> 00:22:34,559
just yesterday. Today, more than one hundred and fifty thousand
336
00:22:34,559 –> 00:22:38,480
additional workers are expected to return from Thailand to Cambodia.
337
00:22:39,200 –> 00:22:43,559
Over this five day period, nearly four hundred thousand Cambodian
338
00:22:43,599 –> 00:22:48,240
workers will have returned. If the fighting continues, even more
339
00:22:48,400 –> 00:22:51,640
likely to come back. We had reported that the Royal
340
00:22:51,759 –> 00:22:55,119
Thai Army and the Cambodia National Ministry of Defense have
341
00:22:55,240 –> 00:22:59,279
both denied firing the ten projectiles that destroyed civilian houses
342
00:22:59,279 –> 00:23:03,319
and properties Emerald Triangle, a city in Now on Thursday,
343
00:23:03,799 –> 00:23:07,240
just as both government establishments confirmed early in the morning
344
00:23:07,359 –> 00:23:11,279
on Sunday that fighting continued through Saturday night to Sunday
345
00:23:11,319 –> 00:23:15,240
morning night. Despite President Donald Trump of the United States
346
00:23:15,720 –> 00:23:18,559
u S statement on Saturday that he has spoken on
347
00:23:18,720 –> 00:23:22,000
phone with both the Prime Minister of Cambodia and the
348
00:23:22,039 –> 00:23:25,920
acting Prime Minister of Thailand, asking the two parties to
349
00:23:25,960 –> 00:23:29,920
agree on immediate ceasefire, and failure to do so, according
350
00:23:29,920 –> 00:23:33,160
to Trump, US will not make any business deal with
351
00:23:33,240 –> 00:23:37,240
both countries. In his words, Trump said, we happen to be,
352
00:23:37,680 –> 00:23:42,000
by coincidence, currently dealing on trade with both countries, but
353
00:23:42,039 –> 00:23:44,799
do not want to make any deal with either country
354
00:23:45,039 –> 00:23:47,440
if they are fighting, and I have told them so.
355
00:23:47,960 –> 00:23:51,200
The call with Thailand is being made momentarily. The call
356
00:23:51,279 –> 00:23:54,759
with Cambodia has ended, but expect a call back regarding
357
00:23:54,839 –> 00:23:58,480
war stoppage and cease fire based on what Thailand has
358
00:23:58,559 –> 00:24:02,119
to say. I am trying to simplify a complex situation.
359
00:24:02,599 –> 00:24:05,359
Many people are being killed in this war, but it
360
00:24:05,559 –> 00:24:09,119
very much reminds me of the conflict between Pakistan and India,
361
00:24:09,559 –> 00:24:13,200
which was brought to a successful halt. We have reported
362
00:24:13,240 –> 00:24:16,200
that Asia is apparently becoming a continent of war as
363
00:24:16,240 –> 00:24:19,480
hope of achieving peace in the continent appeared slim since
364
00:24:19,599 –> 00:24:22,440
twenty twenty three, when fresh wars broke out in the
365
00:24:22,480 –> 00:24:26,640
Middle East. Asia after Hamas attacked Israel, forcing Israel to
366
00:24:26,720 –> 00:24:31,160
launch her multi front wars in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran,
367
00:24:31,200 –> 00:24:33,799
and Yemen. This occurred as Russia that has parts of
368
00:24:33,880 –> 00:24:37,400
its territory in Asia and in twenty twenty two, launched
369
00:24:37,400 –> 00:24:41,839
a full scale war against its neighboring European country Ukraine,
370
00:24:42,400 –> 00:24:45,319
which The multiple wars have led to millions of deaths,
371
00:24:45,640 –> 00:24:48,519
with many in the world expecting an end soon. But
372
00:24:49,000 –> 00:24:51,559
while many in the world hoped for permanent end to
373
00:24:51,599 –> 00:24:54,799
the deadly wars, another fresh war broke out during the
374
00:24:54,839 –> 00:24:58,720
week on Thursday in the Southeast Asia between Cambodia and

Thailand soldier while four other soldiers sustained some level of injuries,
380
00:25:21,240 –> 00:25:25,319
making the acting Prime Minister of Thailand Funtham we Chayai
381
00:25:25,359 –> 00:25:28,960
to recall the country’s ambassador from Panom Pen and expelled
382

00:26:06,000 –> 00:26:09,119
to assault and seize the Fu Maquaya area, where it
392
00:26:09,160 –> 00:26:12,759
said the Cambodian forces had been heavily positioned, adding that
393
00:26:12,799 –> 00:26:16,279

394
00:26:16,359 –> 00:26:20,799
on Friday. While the Prime Minister of Thailand, Haiton Tan Shinawat,
395
00:26:20,799 –> 00:26:23,920
who is currently on suspension, blade the cause of the
396
00:26:23,960 –> 00:26:28,960
war on alleged powerful criminals in Cambodia, saying the conflict
397
00:26:28,960 –> 00:26:31,720
stems from the Thai government’s efforts to crack down on
398
00:26:31,920 –> 00:26:36,519
call center crimes, dismantling a network of immense financial interests
399
00:26:36,599 –> 00:26:41,440
linked to influential groups in Cambodia. Notwithstanding, the Prime Minister

401
