Curfew imposed in Manipur villages amid ethnic tensions between Kuki and Meitei communities.

Curfew imposed in two villages in Manipur's Kangpokpi district due to ethnic tensions. The unrest follows an alleged assault by Kuki youths on a Naga woman, escalating long-standing ethnic violence between Kuki and Meitei communities that has killed over 250 people and displaced thousands since May 2023. Authorities have banned movement in and around the villages to prevent further clashes.
