Four Killed, Child Injured in Separate Attacks in Manipur's Tamenglong and Noney Districts
On September 13, four Kuki civilians, including a couple, were killed and a six-year-old boy injured in two separate attacks in Manipur's Tamenglong and Noney districts. The incidents coincided with the Kuki community's annual 'Black Day' remembrance of past ethnic violence. No group has claimed responsibility, though Kuki groups allege involvement of Naga militants. Authorities have launched investigations, and political leaders condemned the violence, urging peace and accountability amid ongoing ethnic tensions and displacement in the region.
