Over 2,000 Myanmar nationals have crossed the international border into India's Mizoram state in the past 24 hours due to a gunfight between Myanmar's ruling junta-backed forces and the People's Defence Force (PDF) militia group. The PDF attacked two military bases near the Indian border, prompting the influx of people seeking shelter in India. A civilian in India was killed by a stray bullet during the fighting. The majority of the Myanmar nationals in Mizoram are from the Chin community, which shares ethnic ties with the Mizos.
