Thailand conducts airstrike on Cambodia
Thailand conducted an airstrike on a Cambodian military target on Thursday, according to a statement from the Thai army, amid renewed violence stemming from longstanding territorial disputes. The flare-up follows months of mounting tensions over a stretch of territory claimed by both sides – a legacy of colonial-era French maps and unresolved demarcation. Skirmishes have erupted periodically since 2008, and the latest round of clashes began in late May. Thai army deputy spokesperson Richa Suksuwanon said on Thursday morning that Thailand had employed 'air power against military targets as planned.' Cambodia's Defense Ministry said two bombs were dropped from a Thai aircraft on a road. The clashes reportedly centered on the area surrounding the disputed 11th-century Prasat Ta Muen Thom temple. Thai officials said 11 civilians were killed by Cambodian artillery fire. Online video footage showed a petrol station ablaze, allegedly after being hit by a Cambodian rocket. Thai authorities ordered evacuations of villages in four border provinces. Kamboja menyerang Thailand dengan MLRS BM-21 "Grad", mengakibatkan jatuhnya korban di pihak sipil, karena roket-roket ini jatuh di sasaran non-militer seperti minimarket, bukan target militer. Nampaknya konflik di perbatasan kedua negara ini akan memanas lagi, pantau situasinya. Cambodia's Foreign Ministry accused Thailand of conducting 'unprovoked, premeditated, and deliberate attacks,' and asserted the country was acting in self-defense. Phnom Penh condemned Bangkok's actions and called for the withdrawal of Thai troops to 'their side' of the frontier. Thailand's Foreign Ministry responded by blaming Cambodia for the escalation, pointing to recent landmine incidents that injured Thai soldiers. Officials said the mines were newly planted, not leftovers from previous conflicts in the region. The ministry also reported that Cambodian heavy artillery targeted a Thai military base Thursday. Bangkok recalled its ambassador from Cambodia and said it expected Phnom Penh to take reciprocal diplomatic action.

Five civilians killed in Ukrainian attacks on buses – officials (PHOTOS)
At least five civilians have been killed and several others injured in a series of Ukrainian drone strikes on vehicles in Russia's Kherson Region over the past 24 hours, according to regional officials. On Monday, Kherson Region Governor Vladimir Saldo said three civilians were killed when a Ukrainian drone struck a private bus in the Golopristansky district in the region's south. He added that three more civilians were 'gravely injured' and were taken to a local hospital. In another incident in the same district, Saldo said an artillery shell hit a passenger car, injuring two civilians, who were also hospitalized. Two more civilians were wounded in the town of Nova Kakhovka to the north of Golopristansky district, in what Saldo described as a 'terrorist attack' that struck another civilian vehicle. Separately, the city administration of Nova Kakhovka said a minibus was damaged in a Ukrainian drone strike, with two people dying at the scene. Another victim of the strike was hospitalized, officials said, releasing a picture of a badly damaged vehicle, with a blurred body lying on the ground nearby. Russian officials have repeatedly accused Ukrainian forces of attacking civilian targets in frontline areas. In February, officials in Russia's Zaporozhye Region reported that a school bus was attacked by a Ukrainian drone, injuring the driver and five children. In November, local authorities said four people were killed and 17 injured when a Ukrainian artillery strike hit a passenger bus in Kherson Region.
