Tensions are rising between Thailand and Cambodia after Phnom Penh confirmed that only 2 of the 20 Cambodian soldiers captured at the O'Smach border checkpoint have been released by Thai forces. One soldier has reportedly returned dead, leaving 18 still under Thai control. The Cambodian Ministry of Defense has called for the immediate return of all detained soldiers, invoking international humanitarian law and vowing to avoid another armed escalation.

“We will not allow war to break out again,” the Cambodian Defense Ministry insisted in a bold statement, but also issued a strong appeal to Bangkok to return not just the 18 remaining soldiers, but also others reportedly held under Thai custody. The clash that led to these captures has sparked fears of renewed tensions in the already sensitive border region. Diplomatic efforts are now being urged at the highest level to prevent a repeat of history.
