Here what happened, An Aggressive long range patrol of 21st Special force were on recon mission made contact with a large NSCN K camp where they meet with small skirmish and destroyed an observation tower of terrorist while making a retreat to get more men and firepower to strike back. ( 30men strong platoon was well and healthy seen within Indian borders while making back )
Knowing this the terrorist panicked and contacted their contacts within local media and corporate national media ( Hindustan times ) to spread the word that 'Indian Army has again strike into burma' and added 'NSCN k killed some of the jawans' this made a huge hue and cry and was caught my national media.
This development took away the element of surprise and the planned attack by special forces was stopped at its tracks, the very next morning the NSCN K cadits were mobilized and started firing at Assam rifle`s positions to
counter away any incoming attack by SF.
In the whole saga Media was effectively used by terrorist not only to save their camp but gave them time to fully evacuated their camp and relocate ..
