Myanmar jets drop bombs near Indo-Myanmar border, 150 fresh refugees enter Mizoram

Digital Desk: Around 150 Myanmarese nationals entered Mizoram after they fled the bombing area near the Indo-Myanmar border by Myanmarese fighter jets. 

The fresh influx occurred after Myanmarese fighter jets dropped bombs in areas near the border with Mizoram. 

Reports state that about seventeen injured refugees or CDF fighters entered Mizoram. A few people have been referred to the Champhai District Hospital.

A fighter jet of the Myanmar army dropped a bomb near the Mizoram border on the morning of November 13, causing a fresh influx from Myanmar into Mizoram.

As per sources, heavy firing is underway between the Myanmar army and Chinland Defence Force near the Indo-Myanmar border which is 4 km from Mizoram.

Authorities have suggested residents who live near the Myanmar border in Zokhawthar to stay at home.

It needs to be mentioned that around 31,000 people from Myanmar have been living in Mizoram, and the state government is providing them with the necessary relief supplies. The majority of the Chin state refugees from Myanmar left their home country in February 2021 after a military takeover there.
