Thailand releases Cambodian soldiers after months in detention
The release follows a ceasefire declared on Saturday after 20 days of border clashes that killed at least 99 people, including civilians. The Thai Foreign Ministry said the soldiers were “repatriated to Cambodia” as part of the agreement.
Cambodian state news agency Agence Kampuchea Presse confirmed the return of the soldiers after 155 days in custody. The ceasefire stipulated that all detained soldiers from the July clashes—during which at least 48 people were killed—would be returned if the truce remained fully in place for the first 72 hours.
