The U.S. State Department has issued an emergency travel warning advising U.S. citizens to avoid "all travel" within 50 kilometers of the Thailand-Cambodia border. This warning comes in response to a "significant escalation in the conflict" between the two countries.

In light of recent developments, the situation in the region has become increasingly tense, prompting the State Department"s cautionary measures. U.S. citizens are urged to reconsider any plans to travel near the border area until further notice.

This warning follows Thailand"s Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul"s declaration that a peace treaty with Cambodia is void, which has contributed to the rising tensions. For more information on this situation, refer to previous reports regarding the deteriorating relations between the two nations.

As the situation develops, the State Department will continue to monitor the conflict and provide updates as necessary.
