Thailand Cambodia conflict 2025

I'm afraid we have lost An Seh area to Thai army.

China will send a special envoy to both Thailand and Cambodia to rebuild peace as early as possible. If China intervene, I believe peace will be restored soon.

These are the real soldiers. They don't wear boots, they like slippers, and in some cases, bare feet would be more convenient to them.

troops from the mountainous regions stretching from southwest China all the way to Southeast Asia were legendary since ancient times for their incredible ability to sprint through rugged terrain without any shoes. During the Three Kingdoms period, ZhugeLiang was so impressed by these mountain runners that they actually created specialized military units just for them

When I was little kid while my father served in PLA, his base is in very south of China, sometimes the local minority teenagers would steal something from the kitchen or oil tanks. PLA soldiers cannot catch up on those narrow mountain trails, those kids just vanished into the forest with barefoot.

Hilarious many Thai including their official channels freak out about sniper rifle and ATGM made by China.

"China is not our friend, China has an evil plan."

Meanwhile, they are bombing Cambodia at will.

Why Thai act like this? It seems their official strategy: expecting no fancy weapon from Cambodia, China promised!

More collection of combat footages from the Thai-Cambodia conflict. For observation only, not for the politics.

The guy running this channel is very anti-China, so don't take any of his political conspiracy theory at face value.

Thai Dominator XP downed in Cambodia. I heard the news but only see the video today. Not sure if it was shot down or crashed by itself. I'd love to see some Thai F-16 downed.

Cambodian here.

I believe China does not side with Cambodia this time. I also believe the US doesn't side with Cambodia either. We are much alone in this conflict. Cambodia has a yearly joint military exercise with China. So far as I know, China never takes back those military equipment after each exercise. So, seeing a lot of Chinese equipment in Cambodia is normal.

I believe China is neutral, very much would like the war stop and peace prevail so everybody can get back to doing business.
China would not actively supply weapon to either side when the war is going on.

Cambodia harbors mafia bosses operating telecom scam parks and most victims are Chinese in China, and they are protected by the Hun Sen family. I don't know to which extent this is true, but that's what people are saying on Chinese social media.

You need to buy some man-portable SAMs.

I believe our troops have MANPAD, QW-3, FN-6, and KS-1C too. What frustrating me is none of these has seen action. Some reports that Cambodia has only one set of KS-1C which is not enough for deploying in the vast battle fields. So, it is kept to protect the capital. OK, what about MANPAD? All kept for protecting the capital, and let the Siemese fighters fly like no-man zone? OMG!

Is this true. No official media has posted this yet. Cambodian soldier captures a Thai drone.
