Thailand said Saturday it was continuing military strikes against Cambodia despite US President Donald Trump saying the countries had agreed to stop fighting after calls with him.
Renewed clashes between the Southeast Asian neighbours, which stem from a long-running dispute over the colonial-era demarcation of their 800-kilometre border, broke out this month and has displaced around half a million people on both sides.
Each side blamed the other for reigniting the conflict which has killed at least 20 people this week but there were signs that tensions might be easing when Trump said a truce had been agreed.
Trump had hailed his very good conversation with Anutin and Cambodian Prime Minister, Hun Manet on Friday.
However, on Saturday, Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said the country would continue to perform military actions until it feels no more harm and threats to its land and people.
