Cambodia and Thailand In Peace Talks

BANGKOK (AP) — Cambodia says that Thailand hit a site in the country’s northwest with an airstrike on Saturday even as the two sides pursue talks to end clashes. Cambodia’s Defense Ministry said that Thailand deployed fighter jets to bomb targets in its Banteay Meanchey province on Friday and Saturday. Thailand confirmed the Friday attack and cited defense needs. Each country blames the other for breaching a ceasefire that ended a previous round of fighting in July. The two sides are holding talks this week that defense ministers were expected to join on Saturday to possibly formalize an end to the fighting. The combat has caused numerous casualties and mass displacements.
