""Both sides agree to an immediate ceasefire after the time of signature of this Joint Statement with effect from 12:00 hours noon (local time, 0500 GMT) on 27 December 2025, involving all types of weapons, including attacks on civilians, civilian objects and infrastructures, and military objectives of either side, in all cases and all areas," said the statement from the countries' Special General Border Committee, issued by the Cambodian side."
"The announcement comes amid peace talks held between the two neighbors after border tensions reignited earlier in December, claiming dozens of lives. The ceasefire agreement was signed by Thai Defence Minister Natthaphon Nakrphanit and his Cambodian counterpart Tea Seiha. "Both sides agree to maintain current troop deployments without further movement," both defence ministers said in the joint statement. "Any reinforcement would heighten tensions and negatively affect long-term efforts to resolve the situation.""
