According to glavcom.ua: Cambodia has decided to withdraw its national delegation from the Southeast Asian Games due to a border conflict with Thailand that has been ongoing for three days. 137 athletes and staff are returning home due to serious concerns and requests from families.

The conflict has spread to five provinces, causing significant losses on both sides of the border. Previously, Cambodia was one of the leaders at the SEA Games, finishing fourth in the overall medal standings.
