Security Forces Recover Illegal Arms and Dismantle Bunkers in Manipur Districts
Security forces in Manipur's Kangpokpi and Senapati districts conducted joint operations recovering illegal firearms, ammunition, and communication equipment amid ongoing ethnic tensions. The Kangpokpi operation seized over a dozen 12-bore guns, bulletproof vests, and wireless sets, while the Senapati sweep dismantled three illegal bunkers and recovered various weapons and ammunition. These actions follow recent violence between Naga and Kuki communities, including arson and gunfire injuring a CRPF personnel. Authorities continue forensic examinations and maintain a strong security presence to stabilize the region.
