Renewed border fighting between Thailand and Cambodia showed no signs of abating Wednesday, with hundreds of thousands of displaced people in strained conditions as more flooded into temporary shelters. Associated Press reporters on the Thai side of the border heard outgoing fire. The fighting triggered by longstanding territorial disputes followed a skirmish Sunday that wounded two Thai soldiers and derailed a ceasefire pushed by U.S. President Donald Trump that ended five days of combat in July. Thailand’s Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has vowed to continue to fight, and Cambodia’s powerful Senate President Hun Sen promised a fierce response. Over a dozen people have been killed in the latest fighting. And about 400,000 people have been evacuated while fighting continues in four border provinces, Thai military spokesperson Rear Adm. Surasant Kongsiri said.
