After nearly a week of intense fighting along their disputed border, Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to an immediate and unconditional ceasefire. The conflict, which erupted over a contested ancient temple site, has killed at least 34 people and displaced hundreds of thousands. Both sides have accused each other of ceasefire violations even after the agreement, raising concerns about the truce's durability. The ceasefire was brokered with significant international involvement, including pressure from US President Donald Trump, who threatened to halt trade negotiations. The violence has strained regional stability, tested ASEAN's unity, and highlighted the deep-rooted historical and nationalist tensions between the two Southeast Asian neighbors.
