Thailand carried out air strikes on a disputed border area with Cambodia on Friday, as officials from both sides continued talks to try to end fighting.
The Thai Air Force said it had hit a Cambodian 'fortified military position' after civilians had left the area. Cambodia's defence ministry accused Thailand of 'indiscriminate attacks' against civilian houses and injuring several people.
Fighting broke out again earlier this month after a fragile ceasefire in July halted five days of intense border clashes.
At least 41 people have been killed and almost one million displaced since the hostilities resumed.
Both countries have blamed each other for the breakdown of the truce. Since then, fighting has spread to nearly every province along the 500-mile (800km) border.
Cambodia's defence ministry said Friday's attacks were in the north-western Banteay Meanchey province. Up to 40 bombs were dropped by F-16 fighter jets, the ministry said in a Facebook post.
Thailand stated that the action targeted control of Nong Chan village and was carried out 'efficiently and successfully'.
This took place as Thai and Cambodian negotiators held their third day of talks at a border checkpoint, with defence ministers from both sides expected to join discussions on Saturday.
Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul expressed optimism about reaching an agreement to enable a ceasefire, hoping it would herald lasting peace for affected residents.
The United States and China have also sought to mediate the conflict, which has historical roots extending more than a century.
The recent violence was sparked in May after a Cambodian soldier was killed during clashes, with subsequent escalations fueled by provocative military actions from both sides, leading to a brief but intense period of violence.
