Digital Desk: Fresh firing incidents were reported in the Imphal East and Kangpokpi districts of violence-hit Manipur on Friday.
The Indian Army's Spear Corps reports that this afternoon, a group of armed miscreants snuck from the Yaingangpokpi area towards the hillside. Miscreants reportedly fired automatic weapons toward the villages of Urangpat and Gwaltabi.
To avoid collateral damage, the security personnel responded to the firing in a planned manner.
