U.S. President Donald Trump has vowed to intervene to halt renewed clashes that have shattered the cease-fire he helped secure earlier this year between Thailand and Cambodia, as both sides traded accusations of targeting civilians with artillery, rockets, drones, and airstrikes.

Speaking at a rally in Pennsylvania on Dec. 9, Trump said clashes had again erupted in the long-disputed border region, less than two months after he helped broker a cease-fire between the two countries.
