Cambodian Americans Unite to Support Peace Efforts Back Home
ODDAR MEANCHEY – Cambodians of all ages across Massachusetts, particularly in Lynn and Lowell, have gathered to rally in support of their homeland amid the ongoing border conflict with Thailand. The events aimed to raise awareness among Americans and the international community about the situation in Cambodia.
Participants said they hope their voices will help draw greater attention to the issue, urging U.S. President Donald Trump not only to continue facilitating the current ceasefire but also to support broader efforts to restore peace and justice in Cambodia.
They also appealed to the international community to safeguard Cambodia’s sovereignty and uphold the dignity of its people. Protesters called for stronger global engagement to ensure lasting peace and the justice they believe Cambodia deserves.
In the rallies, participants held signs reading messages such as “No more war, no more deaths” and “Cambodia deserves truth and dignity.”

A 10-Year Old Boy Saved from Thai Artillery Shrapnels
A young boy was seriously wounded on his left hip bone during the Cambodian-Thai border clashes in the Ta Moan Thom temple area.
The boy has undergone emergency operation and intensive care treatment at the Jayavarman VII hospital in Siem Reap city. He is now in good mental condition, but further surgical intervention is needed.
The deadly border clashes occurred between the two countries from July 24 to 28, 2025. A ceasefire was then made on July 29 with many people injured and displaced from their homes.

According to the Phnom Penh Post, CMAC confirmed that Thailand dropped 10 MK‑84 bombs during the recent border clashes. Four exploded; five didn’t. I’m no bomb expert, but shouldn’t they go off on impact? Bad fuzes? Soft ground? Poor arming? Whatever the reason—thankfully, most failed.
The Ministry of National Defence urges Thailand to stop flying drones into Cambodian territory and rejects Thai accusations that Cambodia has done the same
During the recent conflict, a Thai F-16 dropped a U.S.-made MK-82 bomb equipped with an Israeli guidance system on Wat Ta Moan Senchey, a Buddhist pagoda in northern Cambodia.
A precision weapon aimed at a temple?
Cambodian-Americans, out of a deep sense of patriotism and without political bias, gathered in front of the White House with three main purposes:
1. To express their heartfelt gratitude to President Trump for helping bring about an immediate ceasefire.
2. To appeal and request President Trump and the U.S. government to help ensure lasting peace in Cambodia and prevent any future acts of aggression.
3. To urge the United States to intervene and help secure the unconditional release of the Cambodian heroic soldiers who were captured by Thailand.
