Thai army accuses Cambodia of breaking truce
Surin (Thailand) (AFP) – Thailand’s army accused Cambodia Tuesday of violating an hours-old truce, saying clashes continued despite a deal meant to end the bloody fighting that engulfed their jungle-clad frontier.
“This constitutes a deliberate violation of the agreement and a clear attempt to undermine mutual trust, he added in a statement. “Thailand is compelled to respond appropriately, exercising its legitimate right to self-defense.”
Cambodia’s defence ministry spokeswoman Maly Socheata insisted there had been “no armed clashes against each other in any regions”.
