Cambodia said on Sunday it had asked the International Court of Justice to resolve its border disputes with Thailand, after a flare-up in their long-running row led the Southeast Asian neighbours to mobilise troops on both sides of the border.

Cambodia has sought the International Court of Justice to help resolve a Thai border dispute that turned into a bloody military clash last month, Prime Minister Hun Manet said Sunday.

Thailand said Saturday talks with neighbour Cambodia had "made progress" in resolving a long-running border dispute that last month devolved into clashes.
