And well, you forgot to mention one more short conflict of this year.
A small dispute can ignite so much of disturbance !
You've brought up a very serious and concerning topic. It's truly shocking to see conflicts like this erupt, especially between neighboring countries with such a long, shared history. You're right, even a small dispute can spiral into a much larger and more destructive conflict.
The situation between Thailand and Cambodia is a complex one, rooted in a long-standing border dispute that has been simmering for decades. While a ceasefire was agreed to in late July, it's a fragile situation with a lot of underlying issues, including historical grievances, domestic politics, and even economic factors like the crackdown on cross-border scams.
It's a stark reminder that while the world often focuses on major conflicts, there are many smaller, regional disputes that have the potential to cause significant disturbance and human suffering. It's definitely a moment to hope that diplomacy and negotiations prevail to prevent any further escalation.
