In case you missed it, convicted felon President Trump on Friday afternoon posted that he “had a very good conversation this morning with the Prime Minister of Thailand, Anutin Charnvirakul, and the Prime Minister of Cambodia, Hun Manet, concerning the very unfortunate reawakening of their long-running War. They have agreed to CEASE all shooting effective this evening,” blah blah blah.
Charnvirakul missed it too, writing “Thailand will continue to perform military actions until we feel no more harm and threats to our land and people. I want to make it clear” in a Facebook post on Saturday as the firing has most certainly not ceased, with Cambodian forces launching rockets a homes in villages on the Thai side of the border, injuring at least four civilians, two of them critically.
That came after Thai Air Force F-16s bombed a hotel and a bridge in Cambodia. “Thailand is still firing. How can we have a ceasefire?” said Cambodian man Un Saruon, who woke up 6 AM local time Saturday to the sound of shells being fired over the border about nine miles away from his home. “I don’t think the war will stop soon. The word ‘ceasefire’ is only coming from Mr Trump,” Un added.
