Cambodia will soon send over 40 soldiers from the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces (RCAF) and the military police to join "humanitarian" mission in Mongolia, officials said in Phnom Penh on Thursday.
"We soon will send our soldiers to join the special mission to get more experience, more training and better cooperation with other countries," Sar Chanthy, senior official at the Council of Ministers, told Xinhua.
Meanwhile, Cambodian military police commander Sao Sokha said that 13 military policemen will be among the 40 Cambodian participants in the mission.
Both officials declined to provide details of the mission and it remains unclear whether it is led by the United Nations.
Local media reported on Thursday that the mission is military exercise in essence.
Last month, Cambodia sent 139 soldiers to Sudan for de-mining operations under the UN leadership.
