When the pact came into force, both nations accused each other of violating their peace commitments, and representatives of their respective military forces held meetings to monitor the situation and provide concrete support for the important de-escalation mechanism.

Thai Government Spokesperson Jirayu Huangsap ratified the cessation of actions along 820 kilometers spanning seven provinces on the Thai-Cambodian border.

The current Thailand-Cambodia conflict started on July 24, with mutual accusations of having fired the first shot.

It claimed the lives of 43 people on both sides, including several civilians, in addition to causing dozens of injuries and the displacement of nearly 300,000 people.

Several countries and international organizations have recently urged the warring governments to resolve the issue through talks and organized a bilateral meeting in Malaysia, the current chair of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), which resulted in the current peace agreement.

As agreed in Kuala Lumpur, a cross-border committee will hold a meeting in Cambodia on August 4.
