Key Points
- A new coalition of ethnic insurgent groups has launched a spate of attacks across India's Northeast since April, including the killing of at least 18 soldiers in Manipur on 4 June.
- The emergence of the United National Liberation Front of Western Southeast Asia marks a notable deterioration in the security situation in the northeast, which had seen a steady decrease in insurgent violence since 2002.
- The episode has underlined the fragile nature of the various ceasefires and the peace processes in the northeast and highlighted the importance of cross-border cooperation with Myanmar.
