BANGKOK,
Thailand’s army said Cambodian forces violated a 10-day-old truce on Tuesday, bombarding a border province with mortars that wounded one soldier.
“Cambodia has violated the ceasefire,” the Thai army said in a statement on Tuesday morning, accusing Cambodian forces of firing mortar rounds into Thailand’s Ubon Ratchathani province.
One soldier was wounded by shrapnel and is being evacuated for medical treatment, it added.
The decades-old dispute between the Southeast Asian neighbours erupted into military clashes several times last year, with fighting in December killing dozens of people and displacing around 1 million on both sides.
The two countries agreed to a truce on December 27, ending three weeks of clashes.
Cambodia has not immediately commented on the alleged strike.
