Thai sources say Cambodia evacuated residents from Poipet on Tuesday night while restricting stranded Thais’ movement and demanding “travel clearance fees”.

Thailand’s Foreign Ministry says Cambodia must declare a ceasefire first, maintain it continuously and co-operate on mine clearance before talks can begin, while estimating 5,000–6,000 Thais are in Poipet and 669 have registered in Phnom Penh to return.
