Three militants of the armed separatist group Kuki-Chin National Front (KNF) have been killed in a gunfight with the Bangladesh Army on Sunday in the dense forests of Ruma upazila in Bandarban district.

According to a statement from the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the army initiated the operation based on a tip-off about the location of a clandestine hideout used by the KNF.

The firefight broke out when Army personnel raided the hideout deep in the jungle.

The identities of the three deceased militants have not been confirmed yet.

During the operation, a cache of arms and ammunition was recovered from the site, the ISPR release mentioned.

The military operation is still ongoing as the Army continues its efforts to neutralise the insurgent group in the region.

The KNF, a separatist organisation operating in the Chittagong Hill Tracts, has been involved in various violent activities, including attacks on security forces and civilians, as part of their quest for an autonomous state for the Kuki-Chin ethnic group.​

It's a sad circumstance.

KNF insurgents are thugs and rapists mostly and there are no educated people negotiating on their behalf or represented by any sane reasonable entity capable of understanding how unreasonable their demands are. They get their arms mostly from Myanmar-based insurgents. The army and RAB should intensify patrols and rout these people from their jungle whereabouts. Together with intensifying patrols, more road infrastructure should be built, along with curfews and depopulating and moving civilian population from selected areas to prevent these KNF people from using civilians as human shields. I am surprised this is not happening yet.

KNF thugs should realize that they are essentially fighting a losing game with a state-owned well-trained Bangladeshi military apparatus and keeping on fighting is affecting their illegal settler community in Bandarban negatively, leading to further poverty and loss of livelihood. However it is ultimately their choice. Most of these illegal settlers from Myanmar do not even have Bangladeshi citizenship papers, other than forged ones.
