 📢 OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF STRONG CONDEMNATION Concerning the Removal of Khmer Language from Hospital Signage in Thailand We express our deepest concern and strongest condemnation regarding the reported removal of Khmer language signs from a hospital in Thailand . Such an act is not only deeply offensive to the Cambodian people but also represents a clear violation of basic human rights, cultural respect, and international norms of peaceful coexistence . Language is not merely a tool of communication it is the soul of a nation and a reflection of its identity and dignity. The deliberate removal of the Khmer language, especially in a healthcare setting where clear communication can save lives, is both irresponsible and inhumane . It sends a disturbing message of exclusion and disrespect toward ethnic Khmer communities and Cambodian nationals residing in or near the border. We view this act as a dangerous provocation that risks inflaming tensions between the peoples of Cambodia ...

 📢 STATEMENT OF CLARIFICATION TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY On the morning of July 26, 2025, the Cambodian Mine Action and Victim Assistance Authority (CMAA) issued an urgent and serious warning to all residents living near the Thai-Cambodian border. The authority alerted the public to remain on extremely high alert due to the extensive use of cluster munitions by Thai armed forces in the conflict zones. The deployment of these indiscriminate weapons poses a grave threat not only to combatants but to innocent civilians, including women, children, and the elderly. Cluster munitions scatter numerous smaller bomblets over wide areas, many of which fail to detonate immediately, creating deadly remnants that continue to maim and kill long after active fighting ceases. This tactic constitutes a blatant violation of international humanitarian law and endangers the lives and safety of border communities. It further escalates tensions and complicates efforts toward peace and stability ...

 📢 STATEMENT OF CLARIFICATION TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY Breaking: The leadership of Phum Tham, Vichayachai has firmly rejected the ceasefire proposal put forward by former U.S. President Donald Trump, declaring explicitly that they do not require any third-party mediators or international intervention. This refusal to accept neutral mediation or facilitation from any third party raises serious concerns about the willingness of certain Thai authorities to engage in transparent and constructive dialogue. It undermines all efforts to peacefully resolve the ongoing conflict between Thailand and Cambodia, prolonging hostilities and causing further suffering for civilians on both sides. Cambodia calls upon the international community, including ASEAN, the United Nations, and global peace organizations, to recognize the gravity of this stance and to continue pressing for inclusive, impartial negotiations. Sustainable peace can only be achieved when all parties are open to dialog...

  📢 STATEMENT OF CONCERN TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY Date: 27 July 2027 Time: 11:15 AM We, the people of Cambodia, raise our grave concern and objection to Thailand’s continued military aggression and refusal to honor ceasefire efforts. Thailand has deliberately rejected recent ceasefire appeals, and their behavior reveals deeper strategic intentions: Loss of Strategic Positions: Thailand has lost several former forward operating bases such as Ta Moan Thom, Ta Moan Toch, Ta Krabei, and Mome Bai, weakening its former unilateral territorial advantage. Unfulfilled Expansionist Agenda: Thailand appears determined to pursue its longstanding military strategy rooted in imperialistic ambitions resembling the Chakri dynasty’s historical conquest model—aggressively attempting to extend its control over Cambodian sovereign land. Thailand is now deliberately expanding the area of conflict to regions near Cambodia’s border with Trat province (Thailand), attempting to stret...

  📢 STATEMENT OF CONCERN TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY Date: 27 July 2025 This morning, approximately 100,000 Cambodian nationals working and residing in Thailand have been forced to flee back to their homeland due to the escalating military tensions and cross-border hostilities. At the Doung International Border Gate in Battambang Province, waves of frightened and exhausted civilians poured across the border seeking safety. This mass return is a direct result of Thailand's aggressive military actions , which have destabilized the region and created panic among vulnerable Cambodian migrant workers. The Royal Government of Cambodia has swiftly mobilized local authorities and transportation to receive and relocate these returning citizens to their respective provinces. However, the sheer scale of this humanitarian situation underscores the gravity of the crisis. We call on: The United Nations , International Human Rights Organizations , ASEAN Member States , and ...

 📢 STATEMENT OF CONCERN TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY We, the people of Cambodia and defenders of peace and sovereignty, are deeply alarmed by the recent military buildup initiated by the Kingdom of Thailand along the Cambodian-Thai border, particularly in Sampov Loun district, Battambang Province . This action represents a serious escalation and a blatant threat to the stability of our region, undermining long-standing international agreements and principles of peaceful coexistence between neighboring countries. In recent days, the Royal Thai Armed Forces have deployed significant military personnel and equipment along border areas, in what appears to be a coordinated effort to intimidate and provoke. This mobilization comes after previous reports of Thai airstrikes near Preah Vihear and repeated violations of ceasefire understandings. We are gravely concerned that these acts not only endanger Cambodian territorial integrity but also put at risk the lives of innocent civilians...

 📢 STATEMENT OF CONCERN TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY We express our deepest alarm and outrage at the increased military aggression by Thai troops , who have intensified their incursions into Cambodian territory , now at twice the scale seen previously. This escalation occurred shortly after reported international engagement by former U.S. President Donald Trump , signaling that Thailand may be acting out of desperation, realizing its window of opportunity is rapidly closing. This reckless behavior reflects not only a violation of Cambodian sovereignty, but also a blatant deception toward the Thai people by its own military and intelligence sectors. If the Thai military cannot secure its goals now, it is clear that their entire narrative—used to justify this aggression—was built on lies . Lies presented with confidence. Lies told to their own citizens with a straight face. We demand to know: Why is Thailand continuing to provoke conflict with Cambodia instead of engaging ...

📢 Thailand’s Use of F‑16 Airstrikes Against Cambodia Date: July 25, 2025 We strongly condemn the Royal Thai Air Force’s use of F‑16 fighter jets to bomb Cambodian territory, resulting in the loss of civilian life and widespread fear among our border communities. This is a serious violation of international law and a grave threat to regional peace and stability. Under the United Nations Charter and the Geneva Conventions, cross-border attacks targeting another sovereign nation — especially without a formal declaration of war or provocation — are illegal and unacceptable. Thailand’s use of air power in civilian-populated zones represents a reckless escalation of force. Cambodia has shown restraint and repeatedly called for diplomatic solutions. Yet Thailand continues to reject third-party mediation while intensifying its military actions. We call on ASEAN, the United Nations, and the international community to urgently investigate these attacks, hold the perpetrators accountable, and ta...

  Crossfire and Condemnation: Thailand and Cambodia Locked in Deadly Border Conflict PHNOM PENH, Cambodia – July 25, 2025 – Tensions along the disputed border between Thailand and Cambodia have erupted into full-blown armed conflict, marking a dramatic and deadly escalation of a decades-old territorial dispute. 1 As of Friday, July 25, 2025, reports indicate ongoing exchanges of heavy fire, including artillery, rockets, and even airstrikes, with both nations blaming each other for initiating the hostilities that have claimed civilian lives and forced widespread evacuations. 2 The immediate trigger for this alarming escalation appears to be a landmine explosion earlier this week that severely injured Thai soldiers. Thailand swiftly responded by recalling its ambassador from Phnom Penh and expelling Cambodia's envoy, citing alleged newly laid landmines by Cambodia – an accusation vehemently denied by Phnom Penh, which asserts the explosion occurred on its territory due to leftover ...
