The Thai army accuses Cambodian forces of violating the ceasefire by opening fire in three locations, just two days after the ceasefire agreement was signed.

The incident took place in Sisaket province, on the border with Cambodia, after the Malaysian prime minister and the US president brokered a ceasefire to halt the bloodiest conflict in a decade. Thailand claims Cambodian forces used small arms, while Cambodia denies the accusations, calling for independent observers. The ceasefire agreement also foresees a meeting between defense ministers on August 4, but tensions persist.
