Thailand has launched air attacks along its disputed border with Cambodia as the two neighbours trade blame for renewed fighting.
The clashes have killed at least one Thai soldier and four Cambodian civilians, with tens of thousands forced from their homes.
Thailand says military action against Cambodia will continue until Thailand’s sovereignty and territorial integrity are secured.
The reignition of fighting along the disputed Thai-Cambodian border has led to a new wave of displacement as tens of thousands of people fled their areas.
According to Thailand’s army, more than 50,000 people have left areas near the border for shelters.
In Cambodia, meanwhile, Information Minister Neth Pheaktra said that tens of thousands of residents had been displaced from several villages near the border.
Both countries have accused each other of breaching a ceasefire agreement brokered by Malaysia, and China and the US.
