Thai, Cambodian Troops Exchange Fire Amid Escalating Tensions

Thailand and Cambodia, neighbors in Southeast Asia, are having a serious disagreement.

Soldiers from both countries shot at each other near an old temple on their border.

This happened after a landmine exploded, hurting Thai soldiers.

Thailand closed its border with Cambodia and kicked out Cambodia's ambassador.

Cambodia then reduced its diplomatic ties with Thailand.

These issues have made the relationship between the two countries worse, adding to earlier problems.
