Thailand has released 18 Cambodian soldiers it had detained since July, according to officials, three days after the two countries agreed to a renewed ceasefire to end weeks of deadly border clashes.
Thailand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed the repatriation of the soldiers to Cambodia on Wednesday, saying it was done “as a demonstration of goodwill and confidence-building”, according to a statement.
