Anyway, regarding Thailand and Cambodia, I’ll keep it short. Most of the fighting is happening in remote areas, some with small populations. Both countries impose heavy censorship, so most information comes from official sources. If you want a clearer picture not the full

JUST IN: Cambodia’s Senate President Hun Sen says he has cancelled all appointments to join the Prime Minister in commanding armed forces to resist an invasion.
