In December 2025, Thailand released 18 Cambodian soldiers who had been detained since July. This action occurred three days after Thailand and Cambodia agreed to a renewed ceasefire. The ceasefire aimed to end weeks of deadly border clashes between the two countries. The release of the soldiers signals a positive step following the agreement. The location of the initial detention and subsequent release was within the context of the Thailand-Cambodia border conflict. The release was likely intended to de-escalate tensions and uphold the newly established ceasefire.
