In Bangkok, the Foreign Ministry said one Thai soldier was killed, raising the Army's death toll to four in two successive days of fighting. Many Thai soldiers were also said to have sustained injuries. And, a Cambodian military official in Phnom Penh broke down as he announced several deaths on his side.
