Cambodia cuts internet from Thailand as tensions grow after border clash
Tensions between Cambodia and Thailand escalated Friday on the eve of talks on a border dispute as Cambodia cut internet services, stopped airing Thai movies and cancelled boxing bouts involving Thai fighters. Cambodia also closed the Doung international border crossing point, known as Ban Laem on the Thai side, after Thailand had cut its operating hours there by half. The move left dozens of Thai cargo trucks stranded at the border.
