Chinland Council’s Op. Jericho Seizes Four Myanmar Junta Outposts...Attacks later the same day on the neighboring junta outposts at Umpu Puaknak and Nawn Thluak Bo resulted in several more junta casualties and the seizure of arms and ammunition, they added“ There are still at least two other junta outposts remaining in the Timit Plains area,” said a Chinland Council member.
Combined forces under the Chin Council (CC) launched the operation last week to clear junta outposts from a 35-kilometer stretch of the Timit River plain between Hakha and Thantlang.
The CC, formed last December as the political body overseeing the Chinland govt, named the offensive Operation Jericho. Chin troops captured the first of the four junta outposts, Point No. 3 strategic hilltop outpost overlooking the Timit River, on November 26.

Analyst explained Timit Plain is a strategic target for allied Chin forces as it would allow them to launch attacks on Hakha, which remains under junta control, he analyst added control of area would also enable CC to cut off junta’s route for transporting supplies & reinforcements to Thantlang. As CC forces advance on the Timit Plain, allied Chin Brotherhood Alliance (CBA) troops are attacking junta positions in the townships of Falam to the south and Mindat to the north. CBA’s Chin Defense Force (CDF) Mindat launched offensive on Nov 9 in Mindat Township, where junta has responded with airstrikes.

In a statement issued today, CDF Mindat vowed to liberate the entire Mindat Township, which houses junta’s Infantry Battalion 274. Falam is under Infantry Battalion 268.
