The border dispute erupted into conflict in 2008, troops from both nations exchanged fire over ownership of an ancient temple and the surrounding land. Artillery bombardment in the area occurred during the conflict. On 11 November 2013 the ICJ gave judgment, ruling that the 1962 judgment awarded all of the promontory to Cambodia and ordering the withdrawal of Thai soldiers. However, the court rejected Cambodia's argument that Phnom Trap had also been awarded to it by the 1962 judgment, concluding that the reference to the "vicinity" of the Temple of Preah Vihear in the operative part of the 1962 judgment was not intended to extend to it.
