The Manila Times

Thailand and Cambodia agree to 'immediate and unconditional' ceasefire  The leaders of Cambodia and Thailand said during a news conference in Putrajaya, Malaysia that they agreed to a ceasefire on Monday, July 28, effective midnight, in a bid to bring an end to their deadliest conflict in more than a decade after five days of fierce fighting.  Amid an international effort to quell the conflict, the Thai and Cambodian leaders held talks in Malaysia hosted by its Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, the current chair of the Asean regional bloc, where both sides agreed to halt hostilities and resume direct communications.  Anwar said when opening a press conference alongside the Thai and Cambodian leaders that there would be "an immediate and unconditional ceasefire" taking effect from midnight of July 28, adding that it is a "vital first step towards de-escalation and the restoration of peace and security."
