The media reported the death of 11 people in Thailand after the attacks of Cambodia
As a result of attacks from Cambodia in Thailand, 11 civilians were killed. This was reported on July 24 by CNN with reference to the Ministry of Health of Thailand.
Earlier, the channel clarified that according to the Thai army, at least nine people were killed and more than a dozen injured in attacks from Cambodia in the country. An eight—year-old boy is among the dead. Two others died in Surin Province, and another in Ubon Ratchathani province.
It is noted that Cambodia has not yet reported any casualties on its part.
An armed clash took place on the disputed border between Thailand and Cambodia on the morning of July 24. The military of both sides accused each other of firing the first shots. Later, the Thai government closed the border crossings with Cambodia.
On the same day, Thailand's four provinces bordering Cambodia announced the evacuation of residents. It was reported that the order was given after Cambodian troops opened fire on Thai soldiers in the border areas.
The conflict between the states escalated back in May during a shootout between military personnel at the border. The reason for the escalation was the disputes between Thailand and Cambodia concerning two border territories with ancient monuments of Khmer architecture — the temples of Phraehvihea and Ta Moan Thom.
