Speaker 1: Super Falcons on Monday could be seen singing, praising and
Speaker 1: dancing with the First Lady, hon Remi t Nubu, by
Speaker 1: thus reversing the negativity of the popular viral song of
Speaker 1: naw your Mamma be this to nah Mamma be this
Speaker 1: to accept the First Lady as the mother of all
Speaker 1: in the nation, which could be recalled that earlier in
Speaker 1: the year, specifically in the month of March, the First Lady,
Speaker 1: Senator ol Remi Tanubu, was at the Dome Events Center
Speaker 1: in Asada in Delta State as part of her Renewed
Speaker 1: Hope Initiative project, and during her visit, a video clip
Speaker 1: of nigeria nursing students rejecting the First Lady as the
Speaker 1: mother of all in the nation went viral and became
Speaker 1: a popular song that was remixed by many to their
Speaker 1: desired tastes and lyrics. After the viral clip showed, the
Speaker 1: events Master of Ceremony had introduced ol Remi to Nubo
Speaker 1: as Everyone's Mother, a common title for first ladies in
Speaker 1: the country. The nursing students refused to accept the designation
Speaker 1: and when the MC declared, nah Mamma be this translated
Speaker 1: us this is our mother, the students responded in unison.
Speaker 1: Now your Mamma be this translated us this is your mother,
Speaker 1: signaling their rejection of the title. According to Bao on Anuga,

Speaker 1: proof that the dreams are valid and achievable. You have
Speaker 1: inspired me two and it's great for a nation to
Speaker 1: have assets that are the hope of today, tomorrow, and
Speaker 1: the day after. You represent that hope. You ignited that hope,
Speaker 1: and we will continue to encourage you, the next generation
Speaker 1: and other generations after you. President Tanubu sedamid cheers from
Speaker 1: the jubilant team. The President recounted the emotional moments of
Speaker 1: the final match, noting how the team's performance lifted the
Speaker 1: nation's spirits and united Nigerians from all walks of life.
Speaker 1: Your victory represents more than a sporting accomplishment. It is
Speaker 1: a triumph of courage, determination, discipline, and consistency. Honestly, I
Speaker 1: didn't want to watch the match. I didn't want to
Speaker 1: have high blood pressure, but people came in and turned
Speaker 1: my TV on that channel. When it was two to zero,
Speaker 1: I got very offended and restless, but I was still
Speaker 1: watching with the spirit of resilience, determination and courage. And
Speaker 1: after that penalty, my strength was lifted, and I believe
Speaker 1: that of the nation was lifted too. But you almost
Speaker 1: made me angrier, hungrier because your mother, the first Lady,
Speaker 1: was in the kitchen nearly abandoning my dinner. She doesn't
Speaker 1: watch the game except when the girls are playing and
Speaker 1: at the end of the final whistle, it was joy
Speaker 1: all over the country, he said. The President assured the
Speaker 1: team of his administrations continued support and commitment to sports development,
Speaker 1: pledging that the government would invest further in women's football

Speaker 1: describing their journey as a testament to resilience, teamwork and determination.
Speaker 1: You played with passion, confidence and an unshakable belief in
Speaker 1: yourselves that it is not over until it is over.
Speaker 1: The zeal you displayed on the pitch was nothing short
Speaker 1: of inspirational. You never wavered and reminded the world wide
Speaker 1: Nigeria remains a powerhouse in African women's football. The First
Speaker 1: Lady prayed for the team's continued success and shared an
Speaker 1: earlier conversation with President Tanubu about the team's bright future
Speaker 1: as world champions. I told mister President this morning that
Speaker 1: you were going on to win the World Cup, and
Speaker 1: he thought I was too ambitious. But Ajabbade, the team captain,
Speaker 1: just seconded that and that is possible, he said. Super
Speaker 1: Falcons captain rashid At Agabade said the victory was for
Speaker 1: the team and for every Nigerian girl who dreams of
Speaker 1: achieving greatness to day. I stand before you not just
Speaker 1: as the captain of the Super Falcons, but as a

Speaker 1: for Super Falcons, and for every young child who believes
Speaker 1: and dreams to be on this stage someday. Ajibade called
Speaker 1: for continued support from the government and stakeholders to elevate
Speaker 1: Nigeria's global standing in women's football. Chairman of the National

Speaker 1: symbol of national unity, inspiration and the triumph of belief,
Speaker 1: courage and excellence. Dicko credited President to Nubu's administration with
Speaker 1: investing in sports development and women's empowerment. Super Falcon's triumph
Speaker 1: is a fruit of your unwavering support for sports and women.
Speaker 1: You have always believed that sports can unite us, he
Speaker 1: LUs and uplift our spirits as one of the major
Speaker 1: drivers of the economy, and today we have seen it happen,
Speaker 1: he stated. He commended the first Lady Senator Honremi Tanubu
Speaker 1: for her constant support for our women in sports. This
Speaker 1: wind goes beyond sports. It is a powerful symbol of
Speaker 1: our national unity and cohesion. In those ninety minutes, Nigerians
Speaker 1: everywhere from the North, South, East and West held their breath,
Speaker 1: prayed together, cheered the team and finally celebrated together. That
Speaker 1: is the power of sports and indeed the power of
Speaker 1: our women in sports, he said. In an earlier press

Speaker 1: the Woman of the Tournament award. He also praised Esther

Speaker 2: type of pressure. The Happy Book came in and.
Speaker 3: Turned my TV on that China. When it was through zero,
Speaker 3: I got very offended and restless. But I was there
Speaker 3: still watching.
Speaker 2: The intermediable Spirit for resilience, determination and courage.
Speaker 3: And after that ANALTI and I saw it too. My
Speaker 3: spirit was lift chained and I believe that of living
Speaker 3: that of the relation towards nave check.
Speaker 2: But what almost did was get me hungrier because your
Speaker 2: mother was in the kitchen, almost abandoned.
Speaker 1: In mind.
Speaker 3: My diner.
Speaker 2: The game that he doesn't really watch except the girls.
Speaker 3: Are they all playing? And I said, Capting, you have won.

Speaker 4: And at the end of the final wishue because all
Speaker 4: exactlyents all over the country.
Speaker 1: Barely ten days after Israeli soldiers bombed the Holy Family
Speaker 1: Catholic Church in Gaza, Benjamin Netanyahu, the State of Israel
Speaker 1: Prime Minister, has said that Israel is now being portrayed
Speaker 1: as the enemy of Christians, stating that Israel has a
Speaker 1: thriving Christian community, the only thriving Christian community in the
Speaker 1: broad radius of the Middle East. Where Christians are not tolerated,
Speaker 1: they're cherished, adding you can like Christmas trees in Nazareth,
Speaker 1: but in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus. When Israel left
Speaker 1: and the Palestinian authority came in, the Christian majority shrank
Speaker 1: from eighty percent to hunder twenty percent because there was
Speaker 1: no more Israel to protect them. Though Prime Minister Benjamin
Speaker 1: Netanyahu did not mention the bombing of the Catholic Church
Speaker 1: in Gaza that led to the killing of three persons
Speaker 1: and injuring to several people, including the parish priest, it
Speaker 1: could be recalled that the Israel Defense Forces idf action
Speaker 1: against the Christian holy place in Gaza sparked global condemnations,
Speaker 1: with the head of the Catholic Church, Popelio the fourteenth,
Speaker 1: in a statement on Sunday, July twentieth, twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: while speaking after his Angelus prayer, read out the names
Speaker 1: of those killed in the incident and said, I appeal
Speaker 1: to the international community to observe humanitarian law and respect
Speaker 1: the obligation to protect civilians, as well as the prohibition
Speaker 1: of collective punishment of indiscriminate use of force and force
Speaker 1: displacement of the population. During a church event on Sunday,
Speaker 1: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while speaking at the Daystars Together
Speaker 1: as One event in Jerusalem with Pastor Paula White, leader
Speaker 1: of the White House Faith Office, said Iran is now
Speaker 1: being projected as the friend of the Americans. Word to
Speaker 1: word of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speech as transcribed and
Speaker 1: made available by the Office of the Israel Prime Minister
Speaker 1: on Sunday reads below. Thank you j thank you Daista,
Speaker 1: thank you Paula, Thank you ambassadors and the many friends
Speaker 1: of Israel. In the Christian world. This is the city
Speaker 1: in the land where it all began, the Judaeo Christian
Speaker 1: tradition that promoted the belief in monotheism, a single God,
Speaker 1: that developed the idea of the sanctity of life, the
Speaker 1: sanctity of individual life, the idea of freedom. In an
Speaker 1: ancient world that was swamped with massive slavery to build
Speaker 1: these ancient empires, the Jewish people came out with the
Speaker 1: idea that slavery should be limited and ultimately removed. This
Speaker 1: was revolutionary, the beginning of the idea of freedom, began
Speaker 1: in this land, and that idea spread throughout the centuries
Speaker 1: and especially in modern times, and changed the world. It
Speaker 1: gives hope to the world. It gives meaning to our lives.
Speaker 1: It gives a bond between the world's greatest democracy, the
Speaker 1: United States of America, and the world's vibrant democracy here
Speaker 1: in Israel. And that's a partnership that is bonded in faith,
Speaker 1: in history, in tradition. I had the great privilege of
Speaker 1: being invited to speak at the Joint Session of the
Speaker 1: American Congress, and I look on the wall and I
Speaker 1: see a quote from Moses. That's our common tradition, our
Speaker 1: common well spring. We're immersed in the Bible. We live
Speaker 1: the Bible. We have a future because we have a past,
Speaker 1: and that past is shared by millions, hundreds of millions
Speaker 1: around the world. And I want to thank you on
Speaker 1: behalf of the people of Israel and the Jewish people
Speaker 1: for that enduring friendship which is the mainstay of our
Speaker 1: present and future ability to live in a free, prosperous
Speaker 1: and peaceful world. But that bond is being challenged to day.
Speaker 1: It is being challenged to day by a fanatic fundamentalism,
Speaker 1: an Islamist fundamentalism that seeks to subjugate all Muslims that
Speaker 1: they view as infidels, eradicate the American and obviously the
Speaker 1: Israeli presence in the Middle East. They call America the
Speaker 1: great Satan. Israel is the small Satan, perhaps, but it's
Speaker 1: a small state that standing in their way, and we
Speaker 1: fight them. We fight them together, as we recently have
Speaker 1: with President Trump's leadership and our partnership. And yet we
Speaker 1: see the effort to break down our bond in America
Speaker 1: and other parts of the world, that partnership that promotes
Speaker 1: Judeo Christian values, that protects in Israel Christians as nowhere
Speaker 1: else in the Middle East, that truth is being reversed,
Speaker 1: put on its head by a campaign of lies. Israel
Speaker 1: is now portrayed as the enemy of Christians, and the
Speaker 1: enemies of Christians are portrayed as the friends of the
Speaker 1: United States. Iran a friend of the United States, an
Speaker 1: innocent victim the Muslim brotherhood who chanted death to America
Speaker 1: alongside Iran friends of America for mass these monsters, these
Speaker 1: monsters who burned babies, raped our women, beheaded our men,
Speaker 1: and chanted death to America. Friends of America Israel has
Speaker 1: a thriving Christian community, the only thriving Christian community in
Speaker 1: the broad broad radius of the Middle East, where Christians
Speaker 1: are not tolerated, they're cherished. You can light Christmas trees
Speaker 1: in Nazareth, but in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus. When
Speaker 1: Israel left and the Palestinian authority came in, the Christian
Speaker 1: majority shrank from eighty percent to under twenty percent because
Speaker 1: there was no more Israel to protect them. We cherish
Speaker 1: our Christian friends. We protect the Christian holy sites, not
Speaker 1: only the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, but in the Galilee,
Speaker 1: not only in Nazareth, but in the Galilee in Capernam,
Speaker 1: where Jesus preached for three years. We uphold and cherish
Speaker 1: those sites. So Israel, the guardian of Christianity in the
Speaker 1: Middle East, is presented on American television by purchased influences.
Speaker 1: Its presented as the enemy of Christianity. What folly, what lies,
Speaker 1: what a travesty of truth. So one of the things
Speaker 1: we have fought now in the seventh front war, we
Speaker 1: have an eighth front, and that is the front and
Speaker 1: the battle for truth. And I can think of no
Speaker 1: one who can carry this battle alongside with us. No
Speaker 1: one who can do it better than you on this channel,
Speaker 1: the New Paula and our many Christian friends. We must
Speaker 1: fight for our common values. We must stand up for
Speaker 1: the truth. And by standing up for the truth, you
Speaker 1: stand up with Israel, and you stand with the Jewish
Speaker 1: people against this abomination of falsehoods. We can win this
Speaker 1: war exactly as we win the Seventh Front war. And
Speaker 1: I thank you for your support. I want to address
Speaker 1: also the ambassadors who are here. Your countries have strong
Speaker 1: Christian communities and a strong bond with us too, and
Speaker 1: I want to thank you for your support and the many,
Speaker 1: many millions around the world who have voiced support for
Speaker 1: Israel during our great battles here. We haven't finished, but
Speaker 1: we're winning and we'll continue to. But the main thing
Speaker 1: that I want to stress is the importance of winning
Speaker 1: the battle for truth, and that is a battle that
Speaker 1: we fought. Even as we speak now, Israel is presented
Speaker 1: as though we are applying a campaign of starvation in Gaza.
Speaker 1: What a bold faced lie. There is no policy of
Speaker 1: starvation in Gaza, and there is no starvation in Gaza.
Speaker 1: We enable humanitarian aid throughout the duration of the war
Speaker 1: to enter Gaza. Otherwise there would be no Gazans. And
Speaker 1: what has interdicted the supply of humanitarian aid is one
Speaker 1: force her mass again the reverse of the truth. Her
Speaker 1: mass robs steals this humanitarian aid and then accuses Israel
Speaker 1: of not supplying it. Well, we have enabled the amount
Speaker 1: required by international law to come in. There are hundreds
Speaker 1: and hundreds of trucks loaded with tons. So far, we've
Speaker 1: supplied one point nine million tons of food. Since the
Speaker 1: beginning of the war, almost two million tons, and now
Speaker 1: we have hundreds of trucks that are waiting on the
Speaker 1: Gazan side of the Kerem Shalom crossing and its international organizations,
Speaker 1: some of them very well intended, and it's the UN too.
Speaker 1: Food that they purchased and we say, go ahead, deliver it,
Speaker 1: and they say we can't because combat is going on,
Speaker 1: and we say, yes, where we're fighting, we'll continue to fight.
Speaker 1: But there are safe corridors. You can bring the food
Speaker 1: to anywhere you want. That is not a problem. So
Speaker 1: we have just announced that formerly here are safe corridors,
Speaker 1: and the UN has no excuses left, no excuses left.
Speaker 1: Stop lying, stop finding excuses, Do what you have to
Speaker 1: do and stop accusing Israel deliberately of this egregious falsehood.
Speaker 1: There is no starvation in Gaza, no policy of starvation
Speaker 1: in Gaza. And I assure you that we have a
Speaker 1: commitment to achieve our war goals. We will continue to
Speaker 1: fight till we achieve the release of our hostages and
Speaker 1: the destruction of Harms's military and governing capabilities. They shall
Speaker 1: be there no more. We shall not have any more
Speaker 1: of these massacres. We shall not have any more of
Speaker 1: these monstrosities. We stand for human freedom and human life,
Speaker 1: and that is not commensurate with Hermas or with Iran
Speaker 1: or other Iranian proxies. We have fought this battle together.
Speaker 1: We shall win it together. And I want to assure
Speaker 1: you that we have great faith in your faith and
Speaker 1: in our faith. We have a common bond. It is strong.
Speaker 1: It is something that represents the vast majority of Americans,
Speaker 1: and I would say just about all Israelis and by
Speaker 1: the way, Jews and non Jews alike, because we know
Speaker 1: that our standing together assures our common future. So I
Speaker 1: want to thank you on behalf of the state of
Speaker 1: Israel for everything that you're doing. And as the saying
Speaker 1: goes for everything that you will do. Thank you all,
Speaker 1: Thank you very much.
Speaker 3: Lady Quindi.
Speaker 1: Royal Thai Army and the Cambodia National Ministry of Defense
Speaker 1: have both denied firing the ten projectiles that destroyed civilian
Speaker 1: houses and properties at Emerald Triangle, a city in Now
Speaker 1: on Thursday, just as both government establishments confirmed early in
Speaker 1: the morning on Sunday that fighting continued through Saturday night
Speaker 1: to Sunday morning night. Despite President Donald Trump of the
Speaker 1: United States US statement on Saturday that he has spoken
Speaker 1: on phone with both the Prime Minister of Cambodia and
Speaker 1: the acting Prime Minister of Thailand, asking the two parties
Speaker 1: to agree on immediate cease fire, and failure to do so,
Speaker 1: according to Trump, US will not make any business deal
Speaker 1: with both countries. In his words, Trump said, we happen
Speaker 1: to be by coincidents currently dealing on trade with both countries,
Speaker 1: but do not want to make kenny deal with either
Speaker 1: country if they are fighting, and I have told them so.
Speaker 1: The call with Thailand is being made momentarily. The call
Speaker 1: with Cambodia has ended, but expect a call back regarding
Speaker 1: war stoppage and cease fire based on what Thailand has
Speaker 1: to say, I am trying to simplify a complex situation.
Speaker 1: Many people are being killed in this war, but it
Speaker 1: very much reminds me of the conflict between Pakistan and India,
Speaker 1: which was brought to a successful halt. The Lao government
Speaker 1: had on Friday reported that ten bombs were found having
Speaker 1: been fired into civilian areas and affecting local residents in
Speaker 1: the Emerald Triangle, a town in Lao that borders both Lao,
Speaker 1: Thailand and Cambodia. A statement from the Lao People's Armed
Speaker 1: Forces on Saturday afternoon refuted earlier media reports claiming clashes
Speaker 1: between the Lao People's Armed Forces and Cambodian armed personnel,
Speaker 1: describing the reports as untrue, denying the shelling in Lao.
Speaker 1: The Royal Thailand and Army, in a statement on Saturday,
Speaker 1: said that the Royal Thai Army clarifies case of artillery
Speaker 1: shells landing in Lao pid R Territory in Emerald Triangle
Speaker 1: area confirms investigation found they were not Thai forces ammunition.
Speaker 1: According to news reports, on the twenty fourth of July
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, at approximately nine forty hours, ten artillery
Speaker 1: shells landed in the territory of the Lao People's Democratic
Speaker 1: Republic LAOPDR in the Emerald Triangle area, which is the
Speaker 1: border junction between Thailand, Laos and Cambodia, without clear confirmation
Speaker 1: as to which side the shells belonged to, and preliminarily
Speaker 1: there were no reports of casualties or property damage from
Speaker 1: the incident, Major General Wintai Suburi Army spokesperson issued a
Speaker 1: clarification that following fact finding investigations and coordination with security
Speaker 1: agencies of the Lao PDR, it is confirmed that they
Speaker 1: were definitely not shells from the Thai military and the
Speaker 1: Royal Thai Army has confidence in its capability to control
Speaker 1: weapon usage effectively, appropriately, proportionately, and strictly within international rules
Speaker 1: of engagement. However, in the recent period, it has often
Speaker 1: been found that the Cambodian side has been using long
Speaker 1: range fire support weapons to attack numerous civilian targets throughout
Speaker 1: the past two days, which appears to be intentional and
Speaker 1: deliberate use of such weapons against targets other than military objectives,
Speaker 1: such as using weapons against historical sites, aiming to significantly
Speaker 1: mislead the international community against the Thai side. The Royal
Speaker 1: Thai Army confirms that the Thai side has strict measures
Speaker 1: for controlling weapon usage, particularly in areas adjacent to the border,
Speaker 1: to prevent impact on civilians or areas unrelated to military operations.
Speaker 1: The Royal Thai Army will continue to coordinate closely with
Speaker 1: the LAWPDR side to maintain positive relations between the two coentries.
Speaker 1: The Royal Thai Army Public Relations Centre Army Spokesperson Team
Speaker 1: stated this on the twenty sixth of July twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: In a swift reaction, the Cambodia Ministry of National Defense,
Speaker 1: in a statement also on Saturday, said the Ministry of
Speaker 1: National Defense of the Kingdom of Cambodia categorically rejects and
Speaker 1: condemns in the strongest terms the false and malicious accusation
Speaker 1: by Thailand that Cambodia deliberately launched projectiles into Laosian territory.
Speaker 1: This baseless allegation reflects a disturbing pattern of deceit by
Speaker 1: the Thai military, first fabricating lies to justify its unprovoked
Speaker 1: aggression against Cambodia, and now seeking to manipulate international opinion
Speaker 1: by undermining Cambodia's reputation. Such irresponsible rhetoric is not only
Speaker 1: patently false, but dangerously inflammatory, particularly as the Lao authorities
Speaker 1: have neither concluded their investigation nor issued any such claim.
Speaker 1: Cambodia demands that Thailand amedialy sees its deliberate disinformation campaign,
Speaker 1: which merely serves to deflect attention from its own flagrant
Speaker 1: violations of international law. Unlike Thailand, Cambodia has not and
Speaker 1: will not violate the sovereignty of any neighboring state, including
Speaker 1: the Lao People's Democratic Republic. Cambodia reitrates its unwavering respect
Speaker 1: for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all nations and
Speaker 1: affirms its readiness to extend full cooperation to the Lao
Speaker 1: People's Army to investigate the incident in a responsible, professional
Speaker 1: and transparent manner. Lieutenant General Meliskita, under Secretary of State
Speaker 1: and spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defense of the
Speaker 1: Kingdom of Cambodia, stated this on Saturday, July twenty six,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. On Sunday early morning, the Royal Thailand
Speaker 1: Army issued a report and stated that today the twenty
Speaker 1: seventh of July twenty twenty five, Major General Wintaisuberi Army
Speaker 1: spokesperson addressed the latest cituation, stating that Cambodia continues its
Speaker 1: military activities by employing long range weapons and firing into
Speaker 1: Thai territory. Continuous clashes have occurred at multiple points along
Speaker 1: the front lines with numerous long range support weapons landing
Speaker 1: outside their intended military target areas in Suran Province. Thailand
Speaker 1: therefore finds it necessary to conduct military operations in response
Speaker 1: to the continued firing of long range support weapons such
Speaker 1: as rockets and artillery that persist in targeting Thai territory
Speaker 1: to prevent civilian casualties or losses. Yesterday, the twenty sixth
Speaker 1: of July twenty twenty five, at approximately fifteen to thirty hours,
Speaker 1: Cambodian artillery shells targeted the Subdistrict Health Promoting Hospital at
Speaker 1: Bansam Meng Village three, southong Chai Subdistrict, Kantharallak District, c
Speaker 1: SA Keht Province, causing severe damage to the building structure. However,
Speaker 1: there were no fatalities or injuries as medical per zannel
Speaker 1: had previously evacuated patients from the facility. Furthermore, intelligence reports
Speaker 1: indicate potential deployment of high performance weapons systems such as
Speaker 1: PHL zero three, Rule seventy and BM twenty one that
Speaker 1: may provide additional support to Cambodian forces. This may reflect
Speaker 1: Cambodia's stance, which Thailand cannot yet trust. According to the
Speaker 1: latest situation, Cambodian forces have not ceased their attacks using
Speaker 1: all forms of weaponry against Thai forces. The Royal Thai
Speaker 1: Army will operate at full capacity to counter this aggression
Speaker 1: and reaffirms its continued focus on military targets that pose
Speaker 1: military threats and endanger the lives and property of our
Speaker 1: fellow citizens, only within the appropriate framework of international rules
Speaker 1: of engagement to protect and maintain sovereignty to the best
Speaker 1: of our ability. The Royal Thai Army Public Relations Centre
Speaker 1: Army Spokesperson Team stated this in a press statement on
Speaker 1: the twenty seventh of July twenty five. A few minutes later,
Speaker 1: the Cambodia Ministry of National Defense reacted and stated that
Speaker 1: the Ministry of National Defense of the Kingdom of Cambodia
Speaker 1: categorically rejects and condemns in the strongest terms the baseless
Speaker 1: and irresponsible accusation by Thailand. That Cambodia initiated hostilities. This
Speaker 1: false claim is nothing more than a desperate attempt to
Speaker 1: shift attention away from Thailand's own flagrant and repeated violations
Speaker 1: of Cambodia's sovereignty and international law. The facts are indisputable.
Speaker 1: It was Thailand that launched the first wave of brutal
Speaker 1: attacks against Cambodian territory. On the twenty seventh of July

Speaker 1: this inner statement on Sunday, July twenty seventh, twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: We have reported that Asia is apparently becoming a continent
Speaker 1: of war as hope of achieving peace in the continent
Speaker 1: appeared slim since twenty twenty three, when fresh wars broke
Speaker 1: out in the Middle East Asia after Hamas attacked Israel,
Speaker 1: forcing Israel to launch her multi front wars in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria,

Speaker 1: launched to full scale war against its neighboring European country Ukraine,
Speaker 1: which the multiple wars have led to millions of deaths,
Speaker 1: with many in the world expecting an end soon, but
Speaker 1: while many in the world hoped for permanent end to
Speaker 1: the deadly wars, another fresh war broke out during the
Speaker 1: week on Thursday in the Southeast Asia between Cambodia and Thailand,
Speaker 1: after soldiers from Royal Thai Army of fourteenth Infantry Battalion
Speaker 1: on Wednesday stepped on a land at Huai Bon Chong

Speaker 1: on alleged powerful criminals in Cambodia, saying the conflict stems
Speaker 1: from the Thai government's efforts to crack down on call

Speaker 1: Lieutenant General Maliskita, in an operational updates on Saturday, said
Speaker 1: that Thailand has continued to expand its military, including its
Speaker 1: infantry forces heavy weaponry, into Cambodia territory. According to the
Speaker 1: Thailand military, known as Royal Thai Army, the Royal Thai
Speaker 1: Army condemns the Cambodian side for the incident involving the
Speaker 1: covered placement of land mines in the border area of
Speaker 1: Chong and Ma nam Yuen District uben Ratchathani Province, resulted
Speaker 1: in severe injuries to military personnel. On the twenty third
Speaker 1: of July twenty twenty five, at approximately sixteen fifty five hours,
Speaker 1: an incident occurred involving Royal Thai Army personnel from the
Speaker 1: patrol team of the fourteenth Infantry Battalion who encountered a
Speaker 1: land mine at Huai bon Chong and Ma nam Yuen District,
Speaker 1: uben Ratchathani Province, within the Thai Cambodia Border operational area.
Speaker 1: The incident resulted in injuries to five Royal Thai Armi personnel,
Speaker 1: with one soldier sustaining severe injuries to his right leg
Speaker 1: from stepping on the explosive device and four others experiencing
Speaker 1: chest tightness and tinatus from the blast concussion. They are
Speaker 1: now being treated at nam Yuen Hospital. Tomorrow, Panaclauplantic, Chief
Speaker 1: of Army will visit the area to monitor the situation
Speaker 1: and provide moral support to the injured personnel. He has
Speaker 1: ordered military forces from the First Army Area, the Second
Speaker 1: Army Area and various units to prepare for operations under
Speaker 1: the Chakrafoon for Warnut plan. Upon receiving orders, The Royal
Speaker 1: Thai Army strongly condemns this inhumane act that violates international
Speaker 1: humanitarian principles and international agreements occurring within the Kingdom of
Speaker 1: Thailand's territory, dune to actions by the Cambodian side, and
Speaker 1: calls upon the Cambodian side to take responsibility for this incident,
Speaker 1: which constitutes a serious threat to peace and stability in
Speaker 1: the border region between the two countries. The Royal Thai
Speaker 1: Army affirms its commitment to utilizing all available mechanisms to
Speaker 1: take appropriate action within the proper framework, ensuring the safety
Speaker 1: of military personnel and Thai citizens while preventing further incidents
Speaker 1: of this nature. Royal Tie Army Public Relations Center Army
Speaker 1: Spokesperson team stated this on the twenty third of July
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Lieutenant General Malei Sokita, the Cambodia Ministry
Speaker 1: of National Defense spokesperson, while addressing the press and the
Speaker 1: public on Saturday, said that one Thailand keeks expanding its
Speaker 1: military including infantry forces, heavy weaponry and fighter jets, Thai
Speaker 1: forces launched indiscriminate attacks that targeted no specific objectives and
Speaker 1: destroyed civilian infrastructure including schools, villages, markets, health facilities, gas stations, temples,
Speaker 1: and World Heritage sites. These attacks have also harmed innocent civilians, children, women,
Speaker 1: and the elderly who are currently at serious risk. This
Speaker 1: constitutes a violation of international law and the Geneva Conventions. Two.
Speaker 1: Please take note that Thai troops employing F sixteen fighter
Speaker 1: jettes reigned bombs on civilian settlements killing and injuring several civilians.
Speaker 1: In Odominchi Province, five Cambodian soldiers and eight civilians were
Speaker 1: killed and twenty one Cambodian soldiers and fifty civilians were injured,
Speaker 1: while around thirty five thousand people in four provinces Odaminchi, Pria, Vihir,
Speaker 1: Pursit and Bante Minchi were forced to leave their homes
Speaker 1: as a result of these attacks. Three. The Thai side
Speaker 1: continues to escalate by aggressively deploying troops to attack multiple
Speaker 1: Cambodian targets, showing no signs of de escalation. At the
Speaker 1: same time, Thailand has declared martial law in Trat and
Speaker 1: Chanterbury Provinces and has begun expanding its military forces and
Speaker 1: armaments under the Operation Chakra BOMs Buvanath Plan. Four. Thailand
Speaker 1: has deliberately launched unprovoked attacks against Cambodia and is increasingly
Speaker 1: violating Cambodian sovereignty while continuing to make exaggerated and unfound
Speaker 1: accusations against Cambodia. This clearly reveals a premeditated plan to
Speaker 1: invade Cambodia. Five. The Ministry of National Defense of Cambodia
Speaker 1: calls on the international community, including the United Nations Security Council,
Speaker 1: Asian international partners, and diplomatic missions, to strongly condemn the
Speaker 1: brazen and reckless aggression against Cambodia. Six. We call on
Speaker 1: the international community to take urgent measures to prevent further
Speaker 1: troop deployments aimed at attacking Cambodia, to ensure that Thailand
Speaker 1: respects the full territorial integrity of Cambodia, and to hold
Speaker 1: Thailand accountable for its violations of the United Nations Charter,
Speaker 1: the Geneva Conventions, and the AZI Entreaty of Amity and Cooperation.
Speaker 1: Cambodia remains firmly committed to resolving the issue peacefully in
Speaker 1: accordance with international law, while reserving our right to self
Speaker 1: defense under Article fifty one of the United Nations Charter
Speaker 1: and to defense under our people sovereignty and territorial integrity
Speaker 1: to the fullest extent against Thailand's aggression and violent acts.
Speaker 3: Eight.
Speaker 1: Thailand's incursions have expanded to other provinces of Cambodia, including
Speaker 1: five artillery attacks in Edma Da Commune, Vielveng District, Pursed
Speaker 1: Province in the Fourth Zone. Thailand also launched attacks in
Speaker 1: three locations Veal Intry tathav and choon Tea. On the
Speaker 1: morning of July twenty six nine, Cambodia once again condemns
Speaker 1: the aggression and premeditated provocations by Thailand. Cambodia reaffirms our
Speaker 1: commitment to maintaining peace and security, but nevertheless reserves the
Speaker 1: right to defend our sovereignty. As a victim of the
Speaker 1: Thaisis violations, we assert our principle of targeting only military
Speaker 1: objectives on the Thai side, ensuring that civilians remain unharmed.
Speaker 1: Ten Thus far, the Cambodian Army has remained resolute and
Speaker 1: unwavering in its defense of cambodia territorial integrity, standing firm
Speaker 1: against the threats and coercion from Thailand, the Cambodia National
Speaker 1: Defense stated. The Cambodia Ministry of Information, also in a
Speaker 1: statement on Saturday, stated that Thailand is using information manipulation
Speaker 1: warfare strategies to fabricate pretexts for its armed aggression of
Speaker 1: Cambodian territory, while falsely portraying itself as the victim. We
Speaker 1: would like to inform our fellow Cambodian citizens that the
Speaker 1: Thai media has colluded with the Thai government and military
Speaker 1: to fabricate and disseminate fake news aimed at demonizing Cambodia
Speaker 1: in order to create a pretext for their own armed
Speaker 1: invasion and violation of Cambodia's territorial integrity. Both the Thai government,
Speaker 1: its military, and media outlets have employed deceptive tactics to
Speaker 1: provoke incidents according to their premeditated invasion plans. The Thai
Speaker 1: military's armed incursion was carefully planned and prepared long in advance.
Speaker 1: The blueprint of Thailand's as military aggression is clear, beginning
Speaker 1: with a preemptive attack on Cambodian forces, followed by shamelessly
Speaker 1: placing all blame on Cambodia without any sense of remorse
Speaker 1: or accountability. Cambodia tells the truth. Thailand lies to the world.
Speaker 1: Cambodia has no interest in invading Thailand. Eur Own News
Speaker 1: reported that as the conflict between the two countries enters
Speaker 1: its third day, at least thirty people have been killed
Speaker 1: and thousands forced to flee their homes. Cambodia's UN ambassador
Speaker 1: Chi Kio called for an immediate unconditional cease fire with
Speaker 1: Thailand on Friday, after the dispute between the two countries
Speaker 1: entered its third day. The UN Security Council held an
Speaker 1: emergency meeting behind closed doors late Friday in New York,
Speaker 1: with all fifteen members calling on the parties to deescalate,
Speaker 1: show restraint and resolve the dispute peacefully. We also call
Speaker 1: for the peaceful solution to the dispute, said Chi Kio.
Speaker 1: He responded to accusations that Cambodia attacked Thailand, asking how
Speaker 1: a small country with no air force could attack a
Speaker 1: much larger country with an army three times its size,
Speaker 1: stressing we do not do that. Thailand's UN ambassador left
Speaker 1: the meeting without stopping to talk to reporters, but Thailand's
Speaker 1: Acting Prime Minister Funtham Wechaiai said Friday that Cambodia may
Speaker 1: be guilty of war crimes due to the deaths of
Speaker 1: civilians and damage caused to a hospital. He said Thailand
Speaker 1: had exercised the utmost restraint and patients in the face
Speaker 1: of provocations and aggression from Cambodia. Meanwhile, the Thailand Ministry
Speaker 1: of Foreign Affairs, in a statement on Saturday evenings, stated
Speaker 1: that Ministry of Foreign Affairs wishes to inform that a
Speaker 1: few moments ago, Acting Prime Minister funtham Wechaiyai had a
Speaker 1: conversation with President Trump, who requested the Thailand and Cambodia
Speaker 1: agreed to a cease fire immediately. Acting Prime Minister thanks
Speaker 1: President Trump for his concern and expressed that Thailand agrees
Speaker 1: in principle to have a ceasefire in place. However, Thailand
Speaker 1: would like to see sincere intention from the Cambodian side.
Speaker 1: Acting Prime Minister thus requested President Trump to convey to
Speaker 1: the Cambodian side that Thailand wants to convene a bilateral
Speaker 1: dialogue as soon as possible to bring forth measures and
Speaker 1: procedures for the ceasefire and the eventual peaceful resolution of
Speaker 1: the conflict. It would be recalled that on June twenty six,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, the Kingdom of Cambodia had stated in
Speaker 1: its government website that Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Maney raised
Speaker 1: concerns about the lack of clarity and inconsistency between the
Speaker 1: Thai Prime Minister and the Thaime military regarding the closure
Speaker 1: and reopening of border checkpoints with Cambodia Sandek. The Panae
Speaker 1: noted that at times, the border was completely closed, only
Speaker 1: to be reopened in certain areas. However, the reopened checkpoints
Speaker 1: permitted only limited movement, barring general public crossing. While Thailand
Speaker 1: shifted the blame to Cambodia for initiating the closure, The
Speaker 1: Premier spoke on Thursday, June twenty sixth at the graduation
Speaker 1: ceremony at the Police Academy of Cambodia in Kandal Province.
Speaker 1: The premier explained that on the twenty fourth of June
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, the Thai Prime Minister publicly announced a
Speaker 1: full border closure with Cambodia, citing the United Nations reports
Speaker 1: alleging that Cambodia was a hub for online criminal activity.
Speaker 1: Exceptions were made only for students and critically ill patients.
Speaker 1: Thai military forces began implementing the closure on that same day,
Speaker 1: yet later in the evening, the spokesperson for Thailand's Ministry
Speaker 1: of Foreign Affairs came forward stating that Thailand had not
Speaker 1: officially closed its borders. Then, on the morning of the
Speaker 1: twenty fifth of June, Thai military personnel reopened some border
Speaker 1: gates for the purpose of taking photos, though the restrictions
Speaker 1: on cross border tracks remained in effect, Cambodia does not
Speaker 1: play such covered games. If we act, we take responsibility.
Speaker 1: We already made our stance clear. If you Thailand close
Speaker 1: the border, we will close it indefinitely until you officially
Speaker 1: reopen it. If we continue to react to your inconsistent moves,
Speaker 1: then we will never know when this will end. The
Speaker 1: Premier underscored Sandek thepad reaffirmed that he is currently awaiting
Speaker 1: individuals in Thailand who will hold genuine power and adopt
Speaker 1: a clear and consistent stance, with whom Cambodia can reliably
Speaker 1: engage in good faith in order to seek joint solutions
Speaker 1: that benefit both nations and their peoples. A Malaysia based
Speaker 1: news media, The Star, reported that Malaysia will continue engaging
Speaker 1: Cambodia and Thailand to achieve a ceasefire in the ongoing
Speaker 1: border clashes, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, the Prime Minister
Speaker 1: of Malaysia. The Prime Minister said that although both leaders
Speaker 1: had an agreed to a cease fire, fighting still persisted
Speaker 1: along the disputed border. Anwar said he has told Foreign
Speaker 1: Minister Datuk Seri Mohammad Hassan to contact his tie in
Speaker 1: Cambodian counterparts for talks. Maybe I will directly contact him
Speaker 1: to at least stop the shooting and continue the negotiations,
Speaker 1: said Anwar. Anghwas said that during his initial call to
Speaker 1: the two leaders, they had thanked him for facilitating talks.
Speaker 1: Even though they agreed to it, there is still shooting
Speaker 1: at the border, added Anwar. Anhwar on Friday, July twenty fifth,
Speaker 1: stated that Thailand and Cambodia had agreed to a cease fire,
Speaker 1: but requested some time as their troops were already stationed
Speaker 1: at the border and needed time to withdraw. Both countries
Speaker 1: have accused each other of starting the military clashes and
Speaker 1: have downgraded the diplomatic relations since Wednesday, July twenty third.
Speaker 1: Tensions between Thailand and Cambodia have been escalating since May
Speaker 1: following a deadly incident in the Prea Vhre area that
Speaker 1: claimed the life of a Cambodian soldier. The two countries
Speaker 1: have been at odds for decades over various under marketed
Speaker 1: points along their eight hundred and seventeen kilometers long border.
Speaker 1: United States US President Donald Trump, who is currently in Scotland,
Speaker 1: said while at a golf course on Saturday that he
Speaker 1: just spoke to the Prime Minister of Cambodia relative to
Speaker 1: stopping the war with Thailand. I am calling the acting
Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Thailand right now to likewise request a
Speaker 1: ceasefire and end to the war which is currently raging.
Speaker 1: We happen to be by coincidents, currently dealing on trade
Speaker 1: with both countries, but do not want to make any
Speaker 1: deal with either country if they are fighting, and I
Speaker 1: have told them so. The call with Thailand is being
Speaker 1: made momentarily. The call with Cambodia has ended, but expect
Speaker 1: to call back regarding war stoppage and ceasefire based on
Speaker 1: on what Thailand has to say. I am trying to
Speaker 1: simplify a complex situation. Many people are being killed in
Speaker 1: this war, but it very much reminds me of the
Speaker 1: conflict between Pakistan and India, which was brought to a
Speaker 1: successful halt. Prime Minister of Thailand, Python Tan Shinawat, who
Speaker 1: is currently on suspension, in a press statement, said that
Speaker 1: I would like to emphasize and reaffirm the government's statement
Speaker 1: that Cambodia's actions constitute a severe war crime in violation
Speaker 1: of peaceful principles under the framework of international law and
Speaker 1: the humanitarian principles that Thailand has consistently upheld. The escalation
Speaker 1: of violence is something the government does not desire and
Speaker 1: has made every effort to prevent. However, when the opposing
Speaker 1: side initiated firing first, it became necessary to respond decisively
Speaker 1: and appropriately. Although I am unable to perform my duties
Speaker 1: in person, I have been closely monitoring the situation and
Speaker 1: receiving report doing everything within my capacity. I wish to
Speaker 1: send my encouragement and concern to all officials and fellow
Speaker 1: citizens along the border. I believe that every mechanism of
Speaker 1: the government is fully prepared to support the work of
Speaker 1: security forces and care for our fellow citizens to the
Speaker 1: fullest extent. This includes on site visits by the Cabinet
Speaker 1: and the establishment of compensation guidelines for those who have
Speaker 1: lost their lives or been injured. At the same time,
Speaker 1: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has utilized every channel of
Speaker 1: communication with the international community to clarify the facts regarding
Speaker 1: the cause of the conflict, which stems from the Thai
Speaker 1: government's efforts to crack down on call center crimes, dismantling
Speaker 1: a network of immense financial interests linked to influential groups
Speaker 1: in Cambodia. This is to protect Thai citizens and those
Speaker 1: of many other countries affected by this operation. I believe
Speaker 1: this may be the primary reason for Cambodia's anger, or
Speaker 1: perhaps not. Additionally, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has presented
Speaker 1: evidence of Cambodia's unjust actions, including violations of treaties, international law,
Speaker 1: human rights principles, and severe in humanity such as the
Speaker 1: illicit planting of land mines, initiating attacks and targeting civilian
Speaker 1: sites such as hospitals and homes, resulting in numerous Thai
Speaker 1: casualties and injuries. These points have been raised on international
Speaker 1: platforms as well. In this situation, Thai people must unite
Speaker 1: and stand together as one. We will not yield to
Speaker 1: such despicable tactics, and nothing can overcome the unity of
Speaker 1: the Thai people. Regarding proposals from various countries to end
Speaker 1: the violence, I believe the government is ready to listen,
Speaker 1: but the key lies in the attitude and sincerity which
Speaker 1: so far we have not seen from Cambodia in this matter.
Speaker 1: On behalf of the Ministry of Culture, I express my
Speaker 1: boundless gratitude for the gracious compassion of Majesty the King
Speaker 1: and her Majesty the Queen, who have shown concern for
Speaker 1: the military personnel and citizens in the Thai Cambodia border provinces.
Speaker 1: Their majesties have graciously taken all those who lost their
Speaker 1: lives or were injured in the unrest in these areas
Speaker 1: under their royal patronage, bringing immense joy and gratitude to
Speaker 1: the families of the deceased and injured, as well as
Speaker 1: to tie subjects across the country. Under the mission of
Speaker 1: the Ministry of Culture, I have urgently ordered two key tasks.
Speaker 1: One ceremonial funerals granted by Royal decree. As the agency
Speaker 1: responsible for conducting funerals granted by Royal decree, we will
Speaker 1: carry out the tasks in accordance with the royal instructions
Speaker 1: from the Bureau of the Royal Household, with utmost dignity
Speaker 1: and adherence to traditional royal customs. Two other assigned support
Speaker 1: missions from the provinces, such as caring for the injured,
Speaker 1: providing essential supplies and necessities, collaborating with relevant agencies to
Speaker 1: provide psychological support for those affected, and deploying personnel to
Speaker 1: assess damages in accordance with the Ministry's responsibilities such as
Speaker 1: historical sites in the area to evaluate damage and secure
Speaker 1: funding for restoration and repairs. Moving forward, first and foremost,
Speaker 1: I would like to reiterate Deputy Prime Minister Funtham's yesterday's
Speaker 1: statement that cambodia act of aggression constitutes a grave war
Speaker 1: crime that violates the principles of peaceful resolution under international
Speaker 1: law and humanitarian principles which Thailand has always upheld. However,
Speaker 1: the government does not condone violence and has made every
Speaker 1: effort to avoid it. But when the Cambodian side initiates
Speaker 1: the use of arms, it is necessary for us to
Speaker 1: response in an appropriate manner. Prime Minister of Cambodia, Samdek
Speaker 1: Mohaborva thopadehun Mane says while clarifying Cambodia's stance on the
Speaker 1: cease fire proposed by Anwar Ibrahim, the Prime Minister of
Speaker 1: Malaysia and rotating Chair of a Zian that given some
Speaker 1: unclear reporting in various international news outlets regarding Cambodia's position
Speaker 1: on the ceasefire proposed by His Excellency Awi Ibrahim, Prime
Speaker 1: Minister of Malaysia and the Rotating at Zienchair, I am
Speaker 1: obliged to clarify as follows. Yesterday evening, on the twenty
Speaker 1: fourth of July twenty twenty five, his Excellency and Wi Ibrahim,
Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Malaysia the rotating a Zienchair, requested a
Speaker 1: phone conversation with me to discuss the fighting between the
Speaker 1: Cambodian and Thaime militaries along the border. He expressed his
Speaker 1: concern over the conflict and his desire for an immediate
Speaker 1: ceasefire to pave way for a resolution between the two sides.
Speaker 1: I made it clear to His Excellency and Wire Ibrahim
Speaker 1: that Cambodia agreed with his proposal for a ceasefire because
Speaker 1: Cambodia did not initiate this fighting. An initial response I
Speaker 1: received from His Excellency and Wi Ibrahim after he spoke
Speaker 1: with his Excellency funtham Wechii, acting Prime Minister of Time Thailand,
Speaker 1: was that the Thai side had agreed to his proposal
Speaker 1: for a ceasefire, setting twelve a m. On the twenty
Speaker 1: fourth of July twenty twenty five as the time for
Speaker 1: both sides to cease the fighting. However, it is regrettable
Speaker 1: that just over an hour later, the Thai side informed
Speaker 1: that they had reversed their position from agreeing to the
Speaker 1: ceasefire at twelve a m. On the twenty fourth of
Speaker 1: July twenty twenty five to not agreeing and waiting for
Speaker 1: a later date. His Excellency Annwa Ibrahim is well aware
Speaker 1: of this situation. Therefore, the key to resolving the current
Speaker 1: armed conflict between Thailand and Cambodia is the genuine willingness
Speaker 1: of the Thai side to accept a ceasefire, which is
Speaker 1: the first step towards finding further solutions between the two countries.
Speaker 1: Even though there is currently fighting between the Cambodian and
Speaker 1: Thai armies at the border. I appealed to all Cambodian
Speaker 1: citizens to maintain their morality and dignity and to avoid
Speaker 1: discrimination or any actions that could affect the Royal Thai
Speaker 1: Embassy in Cambodia, Thai companies, and Thai citizens living in Cambodia.
Speaker 1: For Cambodian citizens who are living, working or studying in
Speaker 1: Thailand and may be facing pressure from discrimination and wish
Speaker 1: to return to Cambodia, please come back to our country.
Speaker 1: If you need assistance, please contact the Royal Embassy of
Speaker 1: Cambodia in Bangkok. Or the Consulate General of Cambodia in
Speaker 1: Essa Caio Province in Thailand. Sincere thanks to our Cambodian
Speaker 1: compatriots for coming together in large numbers for the blood
Speaker 1: donation responding to the heartfelt appeal of h Doctor Pichanmani
Speaker 1: on the evening of July twenty fourth. As a result
Speaker 1: of the blood donation drive, we received two thousand, one
