Thai-Cambodia border dispute turns deadly

This browser does not support the video element.
Tensions have escalated dangerously along the Thailand-Cambodia border, where Cambodian troops have been seen preparing to launch rockets and artillery into Thai territory. In response, Thai soldiers and medics have taken cover after being targeted by shelling, which reportedly continued into civilian areas.
The conflict centers around a long-disputed area near an ancient temple. Both nations have blamed each other for starting the violence — Cambodia has claimed it acted in self-defense after a Thai incursion, while Thailand said it responded to deadly attacks with airstrikes.
Diplomatic relations are rapidly deteriorating: Thailand has closed all border crossings, and Cambodia has downgraded ties. Civilians on both sides are anxious, hoping the fighting ends before more lives are lost.
