A long-standing border dispute between Thailand and Cambodia has erupted into the deadliest fighting in over a decade, with both sides exchanging heavy artillery, rocket fire, and airstrikes. The conflict centers around the sovereignty of the ancient Preah Vihear Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and has resulted in at least 14 deaths and the displacement of over 100,000 Thai civilians. Both countries accuse each other of initiating the violence, which was triggered by a landmine explosion that injured Thai soldiers. Diplomatic relations have sharply deteriorated, with ambassadors recalled and border crossings closed. International leaders and ASEAN have called for an immediate ceasefire, but tensions remain high as military operations continue.
