Steve Hyde has lived and worked in Cambodia for more than 30 years and has held Cambodian citizenship for a long time. He is also my friend, so I’m not sharing this as a detached observer. He recorded this video from near the border because, as he says, he cannot leave, and because he wants people outside Cambodia to understand what life feels like on the ground right now. In his words, he is “deep inside Cambodian territory,” waking up to “heavy artillery, F-16 bomb drops by four or five in the morning.” He talks about more than 600,000 displaced people, “the poorest of the poor,” with families sleeping in temples and in rice fields as the bombing continues.
You do not have to agree with every word or every ask he makes. I don’t. But I trust Steve’s account of what he’s seeing and doing, and I think it deserves to be heard. Whatever anyone thinks about the politics, civilians are being pushed out of their homes at scale, and the human cost keeps growing while the arguments and blame-trading continue.
