Cambodia’s prime minister says 20 soldiers have been killed and several others injured in an ammunition explosion at a base in the southwest of the country. Hun Manet said in a Facebook post that he was “deeply shocked” when he received the news of the explosion Saturday afternoon at the base in Kampong Speu province. It was not immediately clear what caused the explosion. Pictures from the scene showed a destroyed building still smoldering, and soldiers receiving treatment in a hospital.
