Less than 24 hours, the Prime Minister of Cambodia has ordered army to return to base after Laos side agrees to withdraw soldiers. It looks like a political game more than a military action to me.
 
I can't find the exact location on the map. Since the news says Laos troop cross Sesan river in O'Alay commune, I believe it is located somewhere in the red circle below.

The driver of a car that plowed into a crowd of demonstrators after a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia Saturday has been arrested, as city officials report that one person has died and 19 are injured following the incident.

White nationalist and other attendees clashed with those who arrived to oppose the demonstration, which began with a torch-wielding group marching through the city Friday evening and was intended to culminate in an event entitled "Unite the Right," set to begin at noon on Saturday.

However, the event was shut down by authorities in the early afternoon. Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe declared a state of emergency in the city and police ordered the crowds to disperse.

Video taken in the afternoon after the demonstration was shut down shows crowds walking down a downtown Charlottesville street as several cars move slowly along the same avenue. Abruptly, a gray Dodge Challenger rams into the back of another vehicle, slamming one or more cars ahead of it amid the crowd of protesters. The driver then rapidly reverses away from the scene.

It was not immediately clear whether the driver of the vehicle acted intentionally.

Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer tweeted Saturday afternoon that "a life has been lost," a fact that was later confirmed by the University of Virginia Health System, which reported that 20 patients were brought to UVA Medical Center and that 19 were being "assessed and treated."

Charlottesville has become a flashpoint for white nationalists following a City Council vote in February to remove a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee from a park formerly called Lee Park.

The park was renamed Emancipation Park in June.

Does this happen a lot between Cambodia and Laos? Just curious.
The sentiment between Cambodia people and Laos people are very different from one between Thai and Cambodia. Traditionally, Laos people like Cambodia people a lot, like brothers. This only happens once if my memory serves me right. It's solved within 24 hours, lightning fast and as news report the Cambodian soldiers were helping the Laotian soldiers to withdraw from the confrontation point.

I was thinking what to say, recalled the outrageous EU idea to fine the EU countries not accepting Migrants (I posted about it in
Europe Refugee Crisis
thread: Oct 16, 2016), as this month the EU tried again!! (in short, recently Poland and Hungary accepted zero (0) Migrants, the Czech Rep. twelve (12), and from what I figured Slovakia threatened to sue the EU over this); I hope Migrants won't come here from Manchester, Paris, Berlin, Brussels, Moscow or whenever else
