Friend in need of assistance
With absolutly no idea of the personal circumstances you should refrain from making uninformed derogatory comments. Those on the high moral ground seem to forget that the UK population should be grateful to those that are treated abroad, frees up funds and resources for someone else. Medical expenses to date have topped 30K GBP, cost to the nhs would 3-4 times that. On day when you are older you may come to understand the issues that can arise, or maybe not. -

Analysis Rising Tensions: Is Full-Scale War Looming on Thailand-Cambodia Border?
UPDATE Thai-Cambodian Border Clashes Continue on Second Day Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Tensions along the Thai-Cambodian border intensified on the morning of 25 July, as fierce clashes erupted for a second consecutive day, prompting urgent warnings for civilians to avoid the affected zones. Military sources confirmed that Thailand responded with the deployment of its domestically-manufactured ATMG 155mm artillery, successfully neutralising several Cambodian BM-21 rocket launch sites. “The Thai-made artillery gave no quarter,” read a statement on the Royal Thai Army – Instant Updates Facebook page. “Enemy encampments in Chom Krosan have been flattened.” According to Colonel Ritcha Suksuwanon, deputy army spokesman, the clash began around 04:00 in multiple areas, namely Chong Bok, Phu Makua (Ubon Ratchathani province), and Phanom Dong Rak (Surin province). Cambodian troops reportedly unleashed heavy weaponry, including field artillery and BM-21 rockets, prompting the Thai Army to engage in proportionate retaliatory strikes and issue public safety alerts. At approximately 04:30, Cambodian forces launched an aggressive assault on Thai military positions near Chom Krosan district, according to the Royal Thai Army. Reports indicate that Cambodian troops initiated gunfire without provocation, prompting immediate retaliation from Thai forces. The situation intensified near the Preah Vihear temple area, with Cambodian forces believed to be attempting to seize Hill 469, a strategic high ground near the disputed border. The Thai military confirmed skirmishes around this zone and warned civilians to steer clear of all border areas amid the worsening conflict. Throughout the early hours, fighting flared in multiple hotspots: • 04:50: Thai paramilitary rangers observed six suspected Cambodian tanks lined up near Chong Plod Tang. • 05:30: Cambodian forces opened fire near the Suru Banana Forest area; Thailand’s Scorpion light tanks responded from the vicinity of Ta Muen Thom Temple. • 05:35: Thai artillery struck back at tank positions opposite Chong Bok, targeting high ground behind the so-called “No Name Hill”. • 05:50: Thai troops began a counter-assault towards Phu Makua. • 06:29: Cambodian forces launched a concentrated barrage on Hill 408 using artillery and mortars, attempting to secure Hill 469. The attack originated from the Cambodian district of Chom Krosan and included BM-21 launches aimed at the Sam Taek area. • 07:54: Heavy fighting continued along the Sisaket province border, with no signs of de-escalation. In an official update, the 2nd Army Region reiterated the seriousness of the confrontation and urged local residents to avoid all border regions. “There are active engagements across several border locations. Civilians are strongly advised not to enter or travel near conflict zones,” the warning read. Meanwhile, the Thai government is documenting the clashes carefully, asserting that the Cambodian side was the aggressor. Evidence gathered by the Thai Army allegedly supports this claim and has been submitted for further diplomatic and legal evaluation. The situation remains highly volatile, with no ceasefire in sight. The Thai military has vowed to defend national sovereignty “with full force” should the conflict escalate further. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-07-25 -

Are you sure you are right. Just read on the Thai Enquirer that Thaksin says there is no need for outside intervention to stop the fighting because "Hun Sen needs to be taught a lesson" Wonderful government, wonderful man.
