Thai army says exchanged fire with Cambodia at borderPhoto : CollectedBANGKOK, Feb 24, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Thailand's army said it exchanged fire with Cambodian forces along their border on Tuesday, accusing its neighbour of violating a December truce. Cambodian forces "fired a single 40 mm grenade round" near a Thai patrol in the border province of Sisaket on Tuesday morning, prompting return fire, according to a Thai army statement. No Thai personnel were injured, the army said. Army spokesman Winthai Suvaree said in the statement that "Cambodia's actions violated the ceasefire agreement", which ended three weeks of deadly border clashes in late December. The countries' century-old border conflict stems from a dispute over the French colonial-era demarcation of their 800-kilometre (500-mile) frontier.
