Yangon: Myanmar on Wednesday denied media reports that Indian forces had attacked militants inside its territory and said it would not tolerate rebel groups using its soil to attack neighbours.

In a Facebook post on Wednesday, Zaw Htay, director of Myanmar’s presidential office, said: “According to the information sent by Myanmar army battalions on the ground, we have learned that the military operation was performed on the Indian side at the India-Myanmar border,” he said.

“Myanmar will not accept any foreigner who attacks neighbouring countries in the back and creates problems by using our territory.
