2008 Imphal bombing
The 2008 Imphal bombing refers to a terrorist attack that occurred on July 26, 2008, in Imphal, the capital of Manipur, India. The incident involved a powerful improvised explosive device detonated in a crowded market area, resulting in numerous casualties and extensive damage. The attack was attributed to ethnic insurgent groups operating in the region, which have historically engaged in violence against the Indian state and rival factions. The bombing led to heightened security measures across Manipur and raised concerns over the escalating conflict in Northeast India. The event prompted widespread condemnation and calls for greater efforts to address the root causes of insurgency in the area.
