Indonesia’s military announced that a US pilot was shot dead in West Papua. The West Papua National Liberation Army (TPNPB) claimed the attack, stating that it was a message to US imperialism and the Indonesian government.

The spokesperson for the TPNPB explained that the aircraft had been “frequently dropping Indonesian military personnel and violating the ​TPNPB’s ultimatum” and said there would be ‌more attacks if Indonesia kept allowing civilian aircraft to enter in the zones of Papua they control.
