“At least 151 Myanmarese soldiers fled to Mizoram’s Lawngtlai district after their camps in the neighbouring country were overrun by an armed ethnic group,” an Assam Rifles officer said on December 30.
“The Myanmarese Army personnel, also known as the ‘Tatmadaw,’ fled with their arms and approached the Assam Rifles at Tuisentlang in Lawngtlai district on December 29 after their camps near the International Border were overrun by the Arakan Army fighters,” he said.
