Due to Hun Sen releasing the frontline combat map of the Cambodian army on social media, it was analyzed that the current situation between the Cambodian and Thai armies: The ground forces currently participating in the battle by the Thai army include the Second Military Region of Thailand, and later there are also artillery, tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other weapons and equipment mobilized from within Thailand. In addition to having a huge advantage in weapons, air bombing, fire strikes, and logistics support, the Thai army is currently either in defensive or offensive positions on the mountains, directly controlling all main high points in the areas of confrontation. Especially after the loss of Eggplant Mountain by the Cambodian army, the Cambodian army has already lost a significant advantage. Facing the high ground, without the protection of aerial bombs and cannons, the Cambodian army finds it difficult to attack upwards. Of course, without receiving support from the rear forces, especially armored support, the Thai army would not rashly rush down from the mountain. After all, one of the Thai army's M-60 tanks has already been destroyed by the Cambodian army. It is now increasingly suspected that Cambodia and Thailand have both agreed to shift domestic conflicts. The Thai opposition no longer mentions removing Prayut Chan-o-cha from power. The Thai border areas adjacent to Cambodia are all preparing for war. With China's conversation with ASEAN, Cambodia has also requested a ceasefire, but according to the Thai attitude, it changes every day. As of July 26, the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the Thai government highly appreciated and原则上 supported the ceasefire initiative proposed by the Malaysian Prime Minister, and is willing to carefully consider it. The spokesperson for the Thai Prime Minister's Office also denied the statement by the Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet that Thailand and Cambodia had previously reached an agreement on a ceasefire. On the 25th, Thai authorities also refused third-party mediation in the war, indicating that the war between the Cambodian and Thai armies will continue.
