🇮🇩⚡- The situation in the Western New Guinea (Pupua), Indonesia, has significantly deteriorated for the Indonesian Armed Forces, TNI, in the past few weeks.
In May, the 'Papua National Liberation Army', TPNPB, have escalated offensive actions in several directions:
- TPNPB have reached the outskirts of the large town of Sorong, in the west of the island.
- TPNPB are just 38km from the town of Sengii, along the international border with Papua New Guinea in the east. Sengii is the final settlement along the border before the major city of Jayapura.
- The entire Japen Island falls to TPNPB in the north. The island is just south of Biak Island, where it was rumored Russia may establish a possible Air/Naval Base - rumors which have since been denied by the Indonesian government.
- More importantly, TPNPB are approaching the town of Wamena, in the center of the island. If captured, TPNPB could breach the encirclement around its Enaratoli front.
