This follows a mutual agreement by military commanders in all three key border zones to enforce a ceasefire and halt troop movements ahead of the upcoming General Border Committee (GBC) meeting scheduled for next Monday, Thailand's The Nation reported.
Announcing the outcome of trilateral military discussions on Tuesday morning, RTA spokesman, Major General Vinthai Suwaree, said both sides agreed to refrain from troop movements to reduce suspicion and maintain stability while awaiting the GBC meeting. Additionally, commanders at all levels have been authorized to communicate directly in case of urgent situations.
Both sides also agreed to establish a joint coordination team to address urgent issues and prevent further incidents.
General Vinthai added that a complete ceasefire had already been observed across the border, demonstrating a shared commitment to reducing tensions and advancing towards sincere military dialogue
