ICJ: Promontory is Cambodian

Cambodia's sovereignty over a disputed temple on its border with Thailand extends to the natural promontory bearing the monument, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) unanimously ruled Monday.

However, the court rejected Cambodia's claim that it was also awarded a nearby hill, called Phnum Trap or Phu Makheu in Thailand, by the 1962 ICJ ruling that was being interpreted in Monday's judgment.
Pheu Makheu is in the disputed 4.6 square kilometre area.
