Photos of the Week: Rong Cham Villages Stand as a Testament to Pain, Resilience, Endurance, and Hope
AKP Banteay Meanchey, July 24, 2026—










General views of Rong Cham Villages on July 24, 2026, marking the first anniversary of the military operation launched by Thai forces against Cambodia's sovereignty.
Rong Cham Villages 1 to 6, established in 2026, are home to displaced families, most of whom came from the Boeung Trakuon area, Chouk Chey village, and Prey Chan village in Banteay Meanchey province. The villages stand as tangible evidence of the violation of Cambodia's sovereignty and serve as a lasting testament to the pain, resilience, endurance, and hope of displaced families who long to one day return to their homes.
