Thailand and Cambodia agree to 'immediate' ceasefireCollected photoBANGKOK, Dec 27, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Thailand and Cambodia agreed to an "immediate" ceasefire on Saturday, the two countries said in a joint statement, pledging to end border clashes that killed dozens of people. Cambodia and Thailand agreed to the ceasefire that took effect at 12 pm (0500 GMT), said the statement signed by the Southeast Asian neighbours' defence ministers at a border checkpoint on the Thai side. "The EU welcomes the ceasefire agreement signed by Cambodia and Thailand and calls on both sides to implement it in good faith," he said in a post on X. Trump witnessed the signing of an expanded agreement between Thailand and Cambodia in October, but it was broken within months. Cambodia accused Thailand on Friday of intensifying its bombardment of disputed border areas, and Thai media reported Cambodian attacks overnight.
