Militant Clash in Manipur Claims Five Lives in Noney District
In Manipur, a fight happened between members of a militant group called the Chin Kuki Mizo Army (CKMA), resulting in five deaths.
The fight took place in the jungle near a village.
The CKMA is a newer group and hasn't agreed to stop fighting with the government.
The cause of the fight seems to be a disagreement about who should lead the group.
In a separate incident in another district, unknown people ambushed a car, killing three people and an elderly woman who was nearby.
Five militants were killed in a gun battle in Manipur's Noney district.
The gunfight was an intra-group clash within the Chin Kuki Mizo Army (CKMA).
The incident occurred in the Daveijang jungle areas near Longpi village.
The CKMA has not signed any Suspension of Operations agreement with the government.
An earlier ambush in Churachandpur district resulted in four deaths, including an elderly woman.
