Bangkok/Phnom Penh - Border clashes between Thai and Cambodian troops resumed Sunday, after two days of fighting killed 10 soldiers, injured three dozen and forced thousands of civilians to evacuate their villages on both sides.
Thai and Cambodian troops have been exchanging rifle and artillery fire since Friday on their common border near the disputed temples of Ta Kwai and Ta Muean, with both sides blaming the other for instigating the fighting.
'Cambodian troops mobilized in to the Ta Muen area Sunday morning, but our soldiers succeeded in repulsing them,' Thai Foreign Ministry spokesman Thani Thingphakdi said.
On the Cambodian side, Oun Mony, a senior officer based in Oddar Meanchey province, told German Press Agency dpa that the shooting continued into the afternoon.
