On July 29, Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Tea Seiha denied Thai accusations of a ceasefire breach. He outlined a planned border visit and reported a call with Thailand’s acting defence minister. Following the Putrajaya talks, Cambodia’s plan at the time was to host the General Border Committee meeting in Phnom Penh on August 4, 2025.

Preah Sihanouk Provincial Television, July 29 — Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defence Gen. Tea Seiha said that morning that Cambodian forces had strictly observed the ceasefire since midnight local time at the start of July 29 and had continued to exercise restraint and patience. He rejected accusations by the Thai army and some Thai media outlets that Cambodia had violated the agreement.

Tea Seiha said that, to demonstrate Cambodia’s commitment to resolving the border dispute, senior defence officials planned to lead diplomats posted to Cambodia, foreign military attachés and other representatives to the Cambodia–Thailand border that day to assess the terrain and the latest situation firsthand.

Gen. Tea Seiha also said he had spoken by phone that morning with Thailand’s acting defence minister about issues that had arisen during the implementation of the ceasefire.

At the time, Cambodia planned to convene the meeting in Phnom Penh on August 4, 2025, and Thailand was expected to send representatives.
