Cambodian Peace Spokesperson Raises Concerns and Urges Restraint Amid Rising Border Tensions

Unconfirmed reports of Thai military movements prompt urgent appeal for calm and diplomatic resolution ahead of GBC meeting.

(Isstories Editorial):- Phnum Penh, Cambodia Aug 5, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – The Spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defense of the Kingdom of Cambodia would like to inform the general public and the international community that, according to preliminary reports received at 10:49 a.m. on 3 August 2025, there are unconfirmed reports suggesting that Thai military personnel, in cooperation with Thai authorities, have advised remaining civilians in the border area of Surin Province to evacuate by tonight.

Additional unverified information has raised concerns about potential military activity along the Cambodia-Thailand border, including areas near Tamone Thom Temple, Ta Krabey Temple, Preah Vihear Temple, and the Anseh area. These activities are feared to possibly occur in advance of the Extraordinary Meeting of the General Border Committee (GBC) scheduled for 7 August 2025 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

If such developments occur, they could raise serious concerns regarding Cambodia’s territorial integrity and would challenge the spirit of the recent ceasefire agreement, signed by both countries on 28 July 2025 in Kuala Lumpur, with Malaysia, the United States, and China as witnesses.

In light of these reports, the Cambodian peace community urges both nations to exercise utmost restraint. We call upon the international community to support peaceful and diplomatic solutions to preserve regional security and to prevent any further escalation.

Cambodia Needs Peace.

Note: The information shared in this statement is based on preliminary reports and concerns raised by peace advocates. Verification from internationally recognized neutral sources is awaited.
