Main Body

The attack happened at around 2:30 PM near Shokhuvi, about 500 meters from the main entrance of the Assam Rifles Training Center. According to the Director General of Police, Rupin Sharma, early evidence suggests that the bomb was hidden inside a parked autorickshaw. Furthermore, Col Amit Shukla from the Defence PRO stated that the explosion targeted a vehicle during a military operation. The injured soldiers were immediately taken to the Christian Institute of Health Sciences and Research in Dimapur for medical treatment.

此次襲擊發生在下午 2:30 左右,地點位於 Shokhuvi 附近,距離亞薩姆萊夫訓練中心正門約 500 公尺。根據警察總監 Rupin Sharma 的說法,初步證據顯示炸彈被隱藏在一輛停泊的三輪車內。此外,國防公共關係處的 Amit Shukla 上校表示,此次爆炸是在軍事行動期間針對一輛車。受傷士兵隨即被送往迪馬普的基督教健康科學與研究學院接受治療。

This event is part of a recent increase in violence in the northeast region. For example, on July 6, two personnel were killed in an ambush in Manipur’s Ukhrul district. Although the attackers in the Chümoukedima blast have not yet been identified, the state government has started a large-scale search operation. Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio emphasized that this act threatens social stability and asserted that those responsible will be brought to justice.

此次事件是近期東北地區暴力增加的一部分。例如,在 7 月 6 日,曼尼普爾邦的 Ukhrul 區發生伏擊,導致兩名人員喪生。雖然 Chümoukedima 爆炸案的襲擊者尚未被確認,但州政府已開始展開大規模搜查行動。首席部長 Neiphiu Rio 強調,此舉威脅社會穩定,並堅稱負責者將被繩之以法。

Conclusion

Security forces are continuing their investigation into the blast, although the names of the victims have not been released.

安全部隊正繼續調查此次爆炸案,但受害者的姓名尚未公布。
