0:00 [Music] Okay, this just h this just broke out. Like Thailand and Cambodia are now at war. What? >> So 14 people have been killed in Thailand and another in Cambodia in fighting between Thai and Cambodian troops. >> I didn't even know they had drama like that. >> Yeah. I didn't >> like I knew Thailand and Laos wasn't the best of friends. I knew Vietnam and China not the best of friends. >> Yeah. But I never hear people beefing with Cambodia. >> Yeah. So, apparently more than 120,000 people living along both sides of the border, they're they're now fleeing the violence. >> I think the t the tension's been happening since uh this year, the beginning of this year, >> you know, my buddy uh >> what was how started? >> Why are they tripping? >> It was just it was just the >> the border like their the border

0:51 agreement. It's just like a tension been going on since then. >> What? You knew about this? >> I did, but nothing happened. Why didn't you tell us this then in the past? >> Because it was just nothing happened. They were just it was just tension. It was >> Why did you tell us >> how should he bring that up? >> Well, because like we all been friends for a long time, >> right? >> And if you know that something's so important, people been beefing. You would want to tell us like, "Hey, guess what, dude? We have our own Israel Palestine and it's called Cambodia, Thailand." And then we would have known. >> Damn. >> You've been withholding from us. >> It's been I just want >> Yeah. Why are you being shy, bro? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> So, they're declar declaration of war. >> So, apparently this has to do with a long-standing border dispute like Subie's talking about primarily centered around the ownership of ancient temples and the they have like surrounding areas with those temp associated with those

1:42 temples near the Dang Gre Mountains. Nailed it. >> And these this led to intermittent military clashes with the most recent flare up resulting in casualties and now the spillover of 120,000 people leaving. >> Damn. Wow. >> Yeah. >> And I guess like they, you know, there's a big tension between them both because they don't agree on this map that was drawn in like 1907 over what exactly, you know, which you know, what who has what part of the border and so they never they've always had this tension and it's kind of now spilling over. >> But but then the missile just got launched. >> Yeah. Yesterday around 9:00 p.m. >> He was like, "Give me my temple back." And then they ████ blow the temple up. >> I don't think they blew the temple up. >> I think it was just like tactics. Yeah, they actually killed civilians for sure. >> Oh my god.

2:32 >> Not even soldiers. >> There was a landmine that went off near one of the temples and a Thai soldier lost his leg. >> But I feel like that mine in general has been there forever since uh the Vietnam Cambodia war. We're talking about the rocket missiles behind the truck, which which is crazy now because now they're actually shooting rockets and actually hitting civilians instead of soldiers. >> Holy ████ >> So now they're just shooting at people. So this is going to be a whole new >> Thailand shot Cambodia. >> No, Cambodia shot at Thail. >> Cambodia. Like >> that's not a good idea, dude. Thailand's ████ got a lot of ████ ████ going on. >> But Cambodia is the one But Cambodia is the one that's allies with China, though, right? Or is it? >> Oh, they are. >> Well, Cambodia's allies with China, but they they they they never like committed like real troops yet. But they're for

3:22 sure. Cambodia said we want to stay neutral as possible to whatever the ground they have. >> Thailand. >> But China and Cambodia are pretty good friends. >> I thought there's US bases in Thailand. >> So there's not they're not a military friendship, but they're but they're homies as far as >> Yeah, trade economy stuff. >> Oh, damn. >> What's going to happen, dude? Like everyone was thinking everyone was thinking like Taiwan is is going to get invi invaded and all that ████ and then like this ████ goes down. >> Yeah, it's pretty interesting. I mean I mean the the ceasefire thing right now is just an attempt, right? like and and there's by the way Cambodia is saying that they they backed a ceasefire proposal >> put put forward by his Malaysian counterpart like it was this Cambodian prime minister his name's Juan Manette nailed that and he is the chairperson of

4:12 the Association of Southwest Asian Nations and he's saying that Thailand withdrew its backing of a potential ceasefire after initially agreeing to it. So they're just up in arms right now. They're not they're not coming to terms. Isn't it crazy that like map disputes uh China has a map dispute with almost every person on their border? >> Especially with the water. >> Yeah. >> Isn't that crazy? Like at any time somebody could get this pissed over it. >> It's crazy how relatable this is to like stupid stuff like in like my sister has like a border dispute with her neighbor >> over like where >> these are my flowers >> where they put the fence. Yeah. They put the fence like a little She's like it's 3 feet in my property and she's like And you know what? It pisses me off every night I put my head on the pillow like sit like that. It's like that's escalating tensions and ████ >> It says Thailand bombed Cambodia. Are you sure it's not Cambodia bomb Thailand?

5:02 >> I think they both have different stories about this. >> Yeah, >> there's a bunch of different >> At this point, it's propaganda, but what I've been watching from the war pages that I follow in general, >> they say Cambodia shot first, but >> you're on Telegram. You got the >> Yeah, I'm I'm on the Telegram. I just like to read and then that's what made me research this whole thing and go deeper into it. But from what I saw, they said that Cambodia was shooting first. As far as what I'm aware of is the landmine kicked it off, but that that could be another >> that could have been like >> they're saying a Cambodian could be >> I don't know. And they're but they're pissed about it, right? So like a Tai soldier lost his leg and then they're like, "Well, we blame Cambodia for this >> and then it just started everything off." >> I'm asking my buddy right now. >> It could be different. It's a fog of war. >> He's on the ground in uh in Cambodia. >> Oh, nice. >> Oh, really? >> He he lives there. >> Did you ask him like what's going on? >> Huh? >> Is he said >> I don't know.
