Monday, 20 November 2023 An unidentified flying object (UFO) was spotted over Imphal airport in India, leading to the closure of airspace and suspension of civilian flights for over three hours. The Indian Air Force (IAF) scrambled fighter jets in response to the sighting, which lasted from 2:30pm to 4:05pm. The IAF's Eastern Command referred to the object as a "white flying object" and activated their air defence response mechanism. Flight operations resumed after clearance from the IAF. The incident is expected to be investigated separately by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and defence authorities.
Overnight, three medium-intensity explosions rocked a bridge in Manipur's Kangpokpi district, causing damage. The blasts occurred close to Sapormeina along National Highway-2, linking Imphal to Dimapur in Nagaland. This incident unfolded just two days prior to the second phase of Lok Sabha elections, scheduled to take place in certain areas of Outer Manipur. According to a security official, the event transpired around 1:15 am near Sapormeina in Kangpokpi district.
