The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has arrested one US citizen and six Ukrainians in Mizoram. Officials said the group entered restricted areas and later crossed into Myanmar. The agency alleged they were in touch with insurgent-linked groups. “They had plans to train militants and supply weapons, including drones,” sources said. The NIA is probing a possible cross-border terror network. The accused are being questioned about their movement and contacts in the region. Security agencies are also checking links with groups operating along the India-Myanmar border. Further investigation is underway to trace the full extent of the network. (PC: India Today)
