Update on Thai-Cambodia Border Tensions

“The Poipet border has reopened, and the city has returned mostly to normal,” said an Alliance spokesperson in Cambodia following a recent Thai-Cambodia border skirmish. “Our workers appreciated your prayers. They truly experienced God’s peace in the midst of this storm, and they attribute that to God’s goodness and the prayers of His people.” One Alliance couple had a large group of young people from the churches at their house to play sports. “That’s a good sign!” said our spokesperson. 
 
A positive development included Thai and Cambodian military leaders meeting today for talks. They also agreed to joint patrols in the area where the fighting took place.  
 
“This situation still has potential for additional fighting, but at this point, it appears that both sides are trying to reduce tensions,” said the C&MA spokesperson. “Thank you for your prayers. Please continue to pray for cooler heads to speak into these events.”
