Five civilians in Seradala District, Yahukimo Regency, Papua Mountains, were killed in an attack on Monday (21\/9\/2025).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis incident is a crime against humanity that cannot be justified under any circumstances. The victims were innocent civilians who should have been protected,\u201d said the PDIP politician in a press statement in Jakarta, Thursday (25\/9\/2025).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
