The spokesperson of Cambodia’s Ministry of National Defence affirmed that as of 8:45 p.m. this evening, the situation on the frontline remains calm, but Cambodian forces continue to maintain high alert.
She reiterated Cambodia’s firm adherence to the ceasefire agreement reached with Thailand in Putrajaya, Malaysia, on July 28, 2025.
The spokesperson also urged the public to rely only on information from official sources and not to be misled by fake news.
The Ministry of National Defence this evening issued a statement regarding Thai military’s plan to launch new attacks along the border with Cambodia.
According to received information at 10:49 a.m. on Aug. 3, 2025, the Thai military, in cooperation with Thai authorities, has instructed its remaining civilians in the border area of Surin province to evacuate by tonight.
The same sources also confirmed that the Thai military plans to launch attacks along the border starting from the Tamone Thom Temple, Ta Krabey Temple, Preah Vihear Temple, up to the Anseh area. “These attacks are expected to commence soon, prior to the scheduled meeting of the Extraordinary Meeting of the General Border Committee (GBC) on Aug. 7, 2025 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.”
This planned offensive constitutes a violation of the territorial sovereignty of Cambodia before the GBC meeting, and it is a serious breach of the ceasefire agreement mutually agreed upon by both countries on July 28, 2025 in Kuala Lumpur, with Malaysia, the United States, and China as witnesses, the statement underlined.
“Cambodia appeals to the international community to help prevent this at all costs and urges the Thai side to immediately stop its planned aggression, if this information is true, and to respect the ceasefire agreement fully for the sake of peace and stability along the border areas of both countries and the entire region,” said the ministry.
