With its frequent attacks targeting civilians, healthcare workers, and TNI-Polri forces, the OPM remains a challenge, one that the TNI is committed to overcoming to protect the region’s growth.

Recently, TNI task forces carried out a humanitarian mission in response to the murder of New Zealand pilot Glen Malcolm Conning, a tragedy attributed to OPM militants. Despite the lack of requests from either the victim's family or the New Zealand government, TNI initiated an urgent response to evacuate the pilot’s body and safeguard health workers, teachers, and infants, showcasing the force’s dedication to humanitarian aid. 

Colonel Yogi Nugroho, Commander of the HABEMA Media Task Forces, stated, “These actions underscore TNI’s mission to not only ensure security but to uphold humanitarian values and protect civilians. Our work is aimed at creating a Papua that is safe, prosperous, and conducive to sustainable development for all.”
