KIM Condemns Burning of Kuki Village, Demands Immediate Govt Action

7/01/2026 06:53:00 PM No comments

Lamka, July 1, 2026: Kuki Inpi Manipur (KIM), the apex body of the Kuki tribes, has strongly condemned the latest burning of Phaimol, a Kuki village in Kamjong district, alleging that armed cadres of the NSCN-IM and the Shanni Nationalities Army (SNA) were responsible for the attack. In a press statement issued on Wednesday, KIM described the incident as part of a sustained campaign of violence targeting Kuki villages in the Tangkhul-dominated hill districts of Manipur.

KIM expressed concern over the circumstances surrounding the attack, noting that the village had been under the protection of the Assam Rifles and that security personnel reportedly vacated their post just a day before the arson took place. The organisation called for an immediate and transparent inquiry into the events leading up to the incident, saying the timing raised serious questions about the security arrangements in vulnerable villages.

The organisation also claimed that Phaimol was not an isolated case and listed several Kuki villages allegedly set ablaze during 2026. These include K. Songlung (Kangpokpi) on January 26, Litan-Sareikhong (Ukhrul) on February 8–9, Songphel and Mullam (Ukhrul) on April 25, Lanchah (Kamjong) on May 6, Molnoi near the Myanmar border on May 12, Kharam Vaiphei (Kangpokpi) on May 30, Loibol Khullen (Kangpokpi) on June 5, Kultuh Village (Kamjong) on June 11, and the latest incident at Phaimol.

According to KIM, the repeated attacks indicate a disturbing pattern of violence against Kuki settlements and point to what it described as a serious security failure. The organisation questioned why NSCN-IM cadres, despite being under a ceasefire agreement with the Government of India, were allegedly involved in attacks on civilian villages without effective action being taken.

KIM further alleged that the involvement of the SNA, an armed group operating from Myanmar, highlighted a growing cross-border security threat. It urged the Union Government, the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Government of Manipur, and all security agencies to take immediate and decisive measures to protect civilians, strengthen border security, and engage with the Myanmar government to prevent further attacks.

The organisation concluded by calling for those responsible for attacks on civilian populations to be held fully accountable, stating that every citizen deserves equal protection under the Constitution.

Zo Villager Found Dead After Junta Detention in Khampat

7/01/2026 06:50:00 PM No comments

THE photographs appear to show the body of an adult Zo man from Khampat village lying on a makeshift stretcher before being transported on a handcart. He appears to have suffered severe injuries, with visible wounds and marks across different parts of his body. His clothing is torn, and his body appears covered in dirt and bloodstains. Several villagers can be seen surrounding him, apparently recovering and transporting his body from a rural area. From the photographs alone, it is not possible to determine the exact cause of death or who was responsible.

According to local reports, the victim was an innocent Zo villager from Khampat who was picked up by Myanmar junta soldiers and was later found dead. Khampat is a strategically important town in the Kabaw Valley of Myanmar's Sagaing Region, situated close to the Manipur border in India. The town serves as a key trading centre along the Kale–Tamu Highway and has long been of strategic importance. Since the outbreak of Myanmar's civil conflict following the 2021 military coup, Khampat has remained one of the volatile areas affected by military operations and armed clashes.

If the reports surrounding the victim's death are accurate, the incident is deeply disturbing and raises serious concerns over human rights violations. No civilian should be subjected to arbitrary detention, torture, or extrajudicial killing. Such acts only deepen fear, suffering, and insecurity among already vulnerable communities. Those responsible, regardless of their rank or position, should be held accountable through an independent and impartial legal process.

Since the military coup in February 2021, Myanmar has witnessed widespread violence and humanitarian suffering. According to reports by the United Nations and international human rights organisations, thousands of civilians, including women, children, and elderly people, have been killed. Thousands of homes, churches, schools, hospitals, and other civilian properties have been destroyed, including through aerial bombardments, forcing countless families to flee their homes. Many remain displaced, living in difficult conditions without adequate access to food, healthcare, education, or security. These reported atrocities constitute grave violations of human rights and international humanitarian law.

The international community and every peace-loving nation should continue to condemn the actions of the State Administration Council (SAC) and Myanmar's military authorities, while urging an immediate end to violence against civilians. Justice, accountability, and lasting peace are urgently needed so that innocent lives are protected and the people of Myanmar can live with dignity, freedom, and without fear.

Kuki CSO WC Kamjong Condemns NSCN militants

7/01/2026 06:19:00 PM No comments

PRESS RELEASE

Dated: 1 July 2026

The Kuki CSO Working Committee, Kamjong District, expresses its unequivocal and strongest condemnation of the alleged burning of Phaimol Kuki Village today by armed Tangkhul militants of the NSCN in Kamjong District.

This is not an isolated incident. A similar attack was reported at Kultuh Village on 11 June 2026, revealing what we believe to be a disturbing pattern of targeted violence against the Kuki community in Kamjong District.

These repeated acts of arson, intimidation, and violence constitute a serious violation of human rights, threaten peace and public safety, and undermine the rule of law. Such actions have caused fear, displacement, and suffering among innocent civilians.

We urgently call upon the Assam Rifles and all relevant security agencies to launch immediate and effective operations in the Chatric area, from where these attacks are alleged to have been planned and carried out. Prompt and decisive action is essential to prevent further violence, protect vulnerable communities, and restore public confidence.

We issue a stern warning to those responsible and anyone supporting such acts: cease these attacks immediately. Those responsible must be identified, apprehended, and held fully accountable in accordance with the law. Continued violence will only deepen divisions and further endanger innocent lives.

We also call upon the Government and all concerned authorities to act without delay to restore law and order, ensure the safety and security of all affected villages, and deliver justice to the victims. Lasting peace can only be achieved when those responsible for acts of violence are brought to justice and the rule of law is upheld.

FIFA World Cup 2026 | RO-32: Cote d'Ivoire 1 - 2 Norway

7/01/2026 03:35:00 PM No comments

NORWAY booked their place in the Round of 16 after a hard-fought 2-1 victory over CÔTE D'IVOIRE at Dallas Stadium, Arlington on 30 June 2026. Antonio Nusa gave the Norwegians the lead in the 39th minute with a fine finish after being set up by Martin Ødegaard. Côte d'Ivoire responded strongly in the second half and deservedly levelled the match in the 74th minute when substitute Amad Diallo finished from close range following a clever pass from Nicolas Pépé. Just as extra time looked likely, Erling Haaland struck in the 86th minute, calmly converting Patrick Berg's pass to send Norway through.

CÔTE D'IVOIRE produced an energetic display and created several dangerous opportunities, but Norway remained composed in key moments. The Ivorians fought back with determination after falling behind, while goalkeeper Ørjan Nyland and the Norwegian defence stood firm under late pressure. Norway also threatened throughout the contest, with Nusa, Haaland and Martin Ødegaard combining well in attack. Haaland's decisive goal proved the difference in an entertaining knockout encounter.

NORWAY now advance to the Round of 16, where they will meet Brazil, while Côte d'Ivoire bow out after an impressive tournament in which they reached the World Cup knockout stage for the first time. The match showcased the quality and determination of both teams, but Norway's clinical finishing ultimately secured their place in the next round.
