Foreign Office warning for Cambodia
Visitors to Cambodia have been warned to avoid public gatherings after political protestors clashed with security forces.
The Foreign Office reported crowds of up to 400 attempted to protest at Freedom Park in Phnom Penh, near the Night Market yesterday.
The authorities used tear gas and warning gunshots to disperse protestors, resulting in injuries to some protestors and security forces.
Today, crowds of up to 500 were reported at the Primary Court near the Olympic Stadium.
Since national elections on 28 July 2013, the main opposition party has disputed the results and protests are ongoing in Phnom Penh with frequent roadblocks and congested traffic.
On 4 January 2014 the government issued a statement banning any further protests, and demonstrators were forcibly cleared from Freedom Park in central Phnom Penh.
The Foreign Office said: "You should avoid all public gatherings and monitor local media closely."
