Journalistic analysis of the Kuki-Chin National Front (KNF), an armed group formed around 2021-2022 by members of the Bawm ethnic group in Bandarban demanding a separate state for six ethnic groups (Bawm, Pankhua, Lushai, Khyang, Mro and Khumi) in parts of Rangamati and Bandarban; this bundle treats the KNF as a distinct, more recent movement from the PCJSS/Jumma movement covered in the rest of this bundle, and does not provide a detailed account of the ongoing KNF conflict.
