Thailand and Cambodia agreed on Saturday to an immediate ceasefire after weeks of deadly clashes along their border. The ceasefire covers all types of weapons, including attacks on civilians, civilian objects, infrastructure, and military targets anywhere along the border. This was confirmed in a joint statement by both countries' Special General Border Committee. The ceasefire took effect at 12:00 noon local time on 27 December 2025. It follows a surge in violence from 8–9 December after their July ceasefire fell apart. Thailand used fighter jets and artillery strikes, and Cambodia responded with rocket fire. Most clashes happened around the Dangrek mountain range that borders northeastern Thailand and northern Cambodia. The conflict traces back to early 1900s colonial border lines set by French administrators. Thailand claims the old maps wrongly marked the border and ignored natural watershed boundaries from earlier agreements. During the latest violence, US President Donald Trump said he spoke separately with both leaders. He said they had agreed to "cease all shooting" and work to restore peace arrangements. He called the talks positive. However, fighting continued even after Trump's announcement, showing a gap between diplomatic talks and the situation on the ground. Officials from both countries later confirmed Trump's talks but said the ceasefire conditions were not fully met. Thailand’s caretaker Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said he talked with Trump but vowed to keep military actions until there are no threats to Thai land or people. He accused Cambodia of breaking ceasefire promises and said the border remains unstable.
