On Monday, the Royal Thai Army reported the destruction of a cable car that was used by Cambodian military forces to transport weapons.
The conflict between Thailand and Cambodia over the border has a long history. The recent escalation occurred in July, when fighting lasted for five days and resulted in numerous casualties.
After that, the parties were able to reach a ceasefire agreement with the mediation of Malaysia. U.S. President Donald Trump also participated in this process, calling the leaders of both countries and threatening to halt tariff negotiations if the violence did not stop. In October, he specifically visited Malaysia to attend the signing of a peace declaration between the two countries.
