The ceasefire agreement was finalized during the 3rd Special General Border Committee meeting held at the Cambodia-Thailand border and officially took effect on Saturday, December 27.
The agreement was signed by the defense ministers of both Thailand and Cambodia, ending 20 days of intense fighting that included airstrikes and heavy artillery.
