Cambodia: Chinese Embassy Urges Nationals to Leave Border Areas! (19.12.2025)

The Chinese Embassy in Cambodia on Wednesday urged Chinese nationals near the Cambodia–Thailand border to move to safer areas, citing ongoing tensions, and advised those elsewhere in the country to avoid travel to the border region for now.

The Cambodian Ministry of Defense said Monday that the Thai military expanded airstrikes into Siem Reap province, striking an area near a camp for displaced civilians at about 10 a.m. local time, according to Xinhua News Agency.

In case of emergency, individuals should contact local police immediately and seek assistance from the Chinese Embassy, it stated.
