Cambodia has welcomed the return of two wounded soldiers captured by the Thai army. Their capture came after a ceasefire ended five days of combat over disputed territory.

The ceasefire reached in Malaysia was supposed to take effect at midnight on Monday, but it was quickly tested as Thailand and Cambodia continued to accuse each other of violating the truce agreements.

The leaders of Cambodia and Thailand agreed to a ceasefire in a bid to bring an end to their deadliest conflict in more than a decade.
