Renewed fighting between Thai and Cambodian forces has forced families near the border to flee, with bombs landing dangerously close to their homes.
Children are experiencing fear and confusion amid the explosions.
Despite a ceasefire agreement, uncertainty remains over when people can return.
Humanitarian organisations are providing trauma intervention programmes to help children cope. Families also worry about relatives fighting on the front lines, while social media circulates images of soldiers’ funerals.
The remains of some soldiers have been brought to evacuation camps, deepening distress. Displacement continues to weigh heavily, as communities struggle with fear, grief, and uncertainty.
