Bangladesh’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned Myanmar’s ambassador in Dhaka, U Kyaw Soe Moe, on Tuesday, January 13, 2026, following a shooting incident along the Bangladesh-Myanmar border near Hwaikong Union in Teknaf, Cox’s Bazar. During the meeting, Bangladesh expressed deep concern over the incident, in which a 12-year-old child named Huzaifa was seriously injured. The ministry stated that firing into Bangladeshi territory without provocation constitutes a clear violation of international law and poses a serious obstacle to bilateral relations.
Bangladesh demanded that Myanmar take full responsibility for the incident and urged the neighboring country to adopt effective measures to prevent any recurrence of cross-border firing. The ministry also emphasized that internal conflicts between Myanmar’s authorities and armed groups must not affect the lives and livelihoods of Bangladeshi citizens.
In response, the Myanmar ambassador expressed regret on behalf of his government and conveyed sincere sympathy to the injured child and her family. He assured that his government would take necessary steps to prevent such incidents in the future.
