Violence was poised to break out in Kampong Speu and Kandal provinces today after hundreds of villagers armed themselves with knives, axes and slingshots to combat authorities due to evict them from disputed land.

Residents took up the weapons to face a 400-strong force of police and local officials set to implement a Supreme Court-ordered eviction in five villages in both provinces this morning.

Ngem Chea, 74, a resident of Por village in Odong district’s Damnak Raing commune, Kampong Speu province, said that villagers were prepared to resist.
