Jakarta \u2013 The Minister of Primary and Secondary Education (Mendikdasmen), Abdul Mu\u2019ti, strongly condemned the attack by an armed criminal group (KKB) on 10 teachers and healthcare workers in Yahukimo Regency, Highland Papua.

Mu\u2019ti made this statement in Bogor, West Java, on Tuesday (March 25, 2025).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The government has collected data on the victims and will provide compensation to their families. Additionally, efforts to restore education in conflict-affected areas are being prepared. The Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) and the National Police (Polri) are ready to send volunteer teachers to ensure that children in these affected areas continue to receive proper education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
