Humanitarian Crisis: Militants Target Aid Convoy - Krauanagaz Plans Military Escort
According to the Krauanagazan Department of Defense, militants belonging to an organization known as the Purity Vanguard (PV) have reportedly attacked an aid convoy entering Mitallduk, resulting in casualties and the hijacking of aid trucks. The incident, which occurred just hours ago, marks a dangerous escalation in the ongoing crisis engulfing the region.
Aid agencies have been raising alarm for days over the repeated rejection of international aid by armed individuals at Mitallduk’s border, affiliated with the PV. According to one aid truck driver, PV militants are labeling aid workers and the aid itself as attempts to undermine Mitallduk’s “sovereignty and purity.” Despite pleas from humanitarian organizations, Mitallduk authorities have consistently refused to intervene, citing the ongoing “security dispute” in the north, exacerbating the already dire humanitarian situation in the country.
Today’s attack on the aid convoy resulted in the death of three Krauanagazan Federal Army soldiers and one aid worker. According to a spokesperson from the Krauanagazan Department of Defense, the PV militants opened fire on the convoy as it attempted to enter Mitallduk, leading to the tragic loss of lives. The militants then proceeded to hijack the aid trucks, driving them into Mitallduk territory.
