The ceasefire will reinstate the original peace accord facilitated by Malaysia and supported by former U.S. President Donald Trump. This accord was initially formalized in October during a regional meeting in Malaysia.
Recent conflicts between Thailand and Cambodia have led to at least 20 fatalities and the displacement of approximately 500,000 individuals on both sides of the border. The original ceasefire, established in July, was suspended by Thailand in November after border incidents involving landmines.

Both nations have engaged in a propaganda exchange, attributing blame to each other for the ongoing conflict over their 800-kilometre border. The most recent escalation occurred when Cambodian troops allegedly fired on a Thai engineering team.
As of now, neither Thailand nor Cambodia has independently confirmed the latest ceasefire agreement. Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has stated that Cambodia holds responsibility for ending the violence and emphasized the need for a public commitment to the ceasefire.
This situation remains dynamic, with ongoing developments expected as both nations navigate the terms of the ceasefire.
