In a significant escalation of counter-insurgency operations, drone strikes have reportedly targeted United Liberation Front of Asom-Independent (ULFA-I) camps along the Indo-Myanmar border. This development marks a serious blow to the banned militant group, which has long operated from the dense jungles across the international boundary.

According to reliable sources, the strikes were carried out with high precision, targeting ULFA-I’s infrastructure hidden within Myanmar’s Sagaing Region. These camps are believed to have served as safe havens and training grounds for the group’s armed cadres. The attacks, reportedly involving advanced unmanned aerial vehicles, led to substantial destruction and have caused major disruption to ULFA-I’s logistical and operational capabilities.

This aggressive move follows increasing intelligence inputs about the group’s involvement in arms smuggling, extortion, and cross-border insurgency. It is seen as part of a larger strategic effort to dismantle insurgent networks threatening the stability of India’s northeastern region.

Local reports also suggest that the drone strikes were conducted without any direct confrontation with Myanmar’s security forces, hinting at possible tacit approval or coordination. The Indian government has not officially commented on the incident, maintaining strategic silence over the sensitive border operation.

The ULFA-I has claimed heavy losses but remains defiant, vowing to retaliate. However, the loss of key infrastructure and disruption to their hideouts might take time to recover from.
