Cambodian and Thai troops exchanged fire again on Monday morning at near the controversial temple.
The clash took place at about 8.30am and a helicopter was sent to check the damage and injuries at the site which is in Si Sa Ket's Kantaralak district.
No immediate report about the deaths and wounds was available.
This was another round of fighting between Thailand and Cambodia troops after the first one broke out last Friday.
Both sides used heavy weapons including rockets, machine guns, mortars and artillery. The Thai side said Cambodia started the attack, forcing it to retaliate.
Both senior army officers agreed to a ceasefire on Saturday only to be shattered on Sunday.
Hundreds of local people have been evacuating from the areas. Si Sa Ket authorities turned city hall and stadiums into shelters for them.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Sunday night sent a letter to the United Nations Security Council requesting to convene an urgent meeting to stop Thai invasion into Cambodian territory.
The clashes have already caused many seriously damages to the temple of Preah Vihear, a World Heritage, according to the report from Cambodian military stationed at the border area.

it's easy for the siem aggressors to accuse cambodia of starting it, the truth is siem aggressor wanted to steal and invade cambodia badly because they want to steal cambodia's preah vihear and its accessway so cambodia had to defend our country, you know!
the fucking siem didn't build preah vihear temple, ok! they stole a lot of our olk khmer provinces already and still want more from cambodia. i'm sure khmer people will fight to the death to defend our sovereignty, etc! if they start using chemical weapon, etc, cambodia should start using it too. by the way, i thought there's a law to forbid any country from using chemical weapons, so if the siem thugs use it, then they are also violated the law that ban the chemical weapons, etc... they siem really violated many international law, to say the least, really!
And how about 15Km along eastern borders are already encroached by Vietnam ???
This scenario is Hanoi's strategy to cover up the truth with the accomplice of traitor Hun Sen.
agreed with 11:36am
Oh, come on, don't you guys, The Nation and Bangkok Post are getting tired of lying already about who shot first and who did the second. It didn't matter now because the war games are starting so many times already...
Fucking siem/dog, Cambodia said don't cross the border or we shoot. So what? You don't listen, we shoot first, idiot!
