The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is probing a suspected drone attack on a civilian aircraft in Myanmar, linking American citizen Matthew Van Dyke and six Ukrainian nationals to the incident. The NIA alleges that the group entered India illegally through the Mizoram border in March, before crossing into Myanmar without proper permits.
They claim the group underwent pre-scheduled training in drone warfare and operations with Myanmar-based Ethnic Armed Groups targeting the Myanmar Military Junta. The NIA has recovered digital evidence, including photographs, videos, and voice recordings from electronic devices seized from the arrested individuals. They are examining this material and videos to establish the attack's execution and the involvement of the wider drone network. The NIA is questioning the accused to verify the evidence and analyze their statements.
