In the state of Manipur, India, the situation has become extremely dire, with authorities losing control. According to international media reports, around 700 insurgents attacked a police camp in Imphal, seizing modern weapons, firearms, and several vehicles, while also causing casualties among police personnel.
As per the report, the ongoing armed conflict, which began on May 3 last year, has resulted in the looting of over 5,000 government weapons and millions of rounds of ammunition.
Despite deploying more than a hundred thousand security personnel, the situation has slipped from the control of the Modi government.
Reportedly, in Manipur, more than 100 police officers have lost their lives, and over a thousand individuals have been killed, with over a hundred thousand displaced. More than 6,000 homes and over 500 places of worship have also been destroyed.
