Pakistan, July 28 -- Malaysia's Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand on Monday. The agreement calls for an "immediate and unconditional" halt to fighting, effective from midnight local time. This decision follows days of deadly clashes along their long-disputed border. Malaysia acted as a mediator in the peace talks.

So far, the violence has claimed at least 35 lives and injured over 200 people. Both Cambodian and Thai officials blame each other for starting the latest round of violence.
