Proxy War Warning: Covert Military Flows Near Northeast Alarm India's Security
•India's security agencies are concerned about the country being used as a transit corridor for covert military logistics, strengthening insurgent capabilities in the Northeast.
•Foreign actors are reportedly moving equipment, technical expertise, and dual-use systems through nearby territories with minimal scrutiny, creating a proxy-style threat.
•Activity in Myanmar's Chin State, bordering Mizoram, involves training and coordination exercises by ethnic armed groups like the Chin National Army near Indian territory.
•Long-standing insurgent networks in India's Northeast, including ULFA (Independent) and NSCN (K), have relied on cross-border sanctuaries and supply chains.
•Growing use of unmanned systems (drones) by militants poses a significant threat, capable of targeted strikes and difficult to detect in vulnerable frontier sectors.
