Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra was suspended by a court following border clashes with Cambodia, escalating tensions and political instability. The suspension came after a Thai court considered whether to remove Shinawatra due to a phone call with Cambodia's de facto ruler, Hun Sen, after a deadly border incident. The fighting resulted in the death of a Cambodian Second Lieutenant. The incident, occurring in a disputed border area, led to border closures and restrictions. The situation has global implications due to Thailand's economic importance and its location between Cambodia and Myanmar.
