Khmer Rouge Troops Prepare for Civil War - Raw Footage (1989)

Подробнее о видео

On 20 September 1989, ITN recorded Khmer Rouge soldiers undertaking preparations to wage war against the Cambodian government following the withdrawal of Vietnamese forces from the country. Ten years after Pol Pot's genocidal regime was toppled by invading Vietnamese troops, Khmer Rouge fighters were poised to exploit the Vietnamese departure. Filming near Site 8, a Khmer Rouge-administered refugee camp on the border between Cambodia and Thailand, cameras captured the fighters going about their daily routine before marching through the jungle into Cambodia.
