According to the report, Cambodia and Thailand agreed to implement an immediate ceasefire Saturday to halt three weeks of fighting that has left dozens dead and many others injured, officials said.
The report stated that agreement was announced in a joint statement issued after a meeting of the 3rd Special General Border Committee (GBC), a body co-chaired by the defense ministers of both Southeast Asian countries, according to the Cambodian Prime Minister's office. The ceasefire took effect on Saturday, starting at 12 noon local time (0500GMT).
The report added that under the arrangement, both sides commit to halting all armed hostilities and pledge to avoid unprovoked fire, troop advances, or movements toward each other’s positions. The ceasefire applies across all areas along the border and covers military targets, civilians, and infrastructure, the statement said.
The report also said that under the agreement, Thailand will return all 18 soldiers, who have been in Thai custody since July, to Cambodia after the ceasefire has been fully maintained for 72 hours.
Additionally, as part of de-escalation measures, Cambodia and Thailand agreed to maintain their current troop deployments with no further movements, including patrols toward opposing positions.
