The Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) on August 4 revealed that Jama'atul Ansar fil Hindal Sharqiya (JAFHS) planned to establish a naval unit in the Patuakhali District (Barisal Division) to provide refuge for any of its operatives who were dispersed and possessed military training, reports Dhaka Tribune. RAB stated that they assigned the responsibility of forming the naval unit to Kazi Saraz Uddin alias Siraz, a resident of Patuakhali who had joined JAFHS from the Bangladesh chapter of the Pakistan-based militant group Harkat-ul-Jihad-al Islami Bangladesh (HuJI-B). The financing for this naval unit was provided by Ansar al-Islam. Commander Khandaker Al Moin, the Director of RAB's Legal and Media Wing, said, "Their plan was to retreat to the mountainous areas in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) if detected by law enforcement after receiving training on the plains, and now they are scattered across the plains." RAB's operations between October 2022 and July 30, 2023, resulted in the arrest of a total of 82 individuals associated with JAFHS.

Four militants, including a teenager linked with Jama'atul Ansar Fil Hindal Sharqiya (JAFHS), identified as Abu Bakkar alias Riyasad Rayyan (16), Mohammad Hasan Sayeed, Sheikh Ahmed Mamun, and Mohammad Yasin, surrendered voluntarily to Rapid Action Battalion (RAB)-11 on August 8, reports Dhaka Tribune. Commander Khandaker Al Moin, director of the RAB's legal and media wing, stated at a press conference on August 9 that all four were taken to the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) on a Hijrat (to migrate from one place to another place for the sake of deen, faith, and Allah) along with nine others in February 2022. They later attempted to flee the training camp, but were caught and tortured in captivity. After learning of RAB's legal aid to the surrendered and misunderstood militants, the four ultimately succeeded in March 2023 and contacted the families.

On August 9, Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan stated that the government has banned militant outfit Jama'atul Ansar Fil Hindal Sharqiya (JAFHS), citing its potential threat to public safety and law and order, reports The Daily Star. He further said that JAFHS’s outfit's long involvement in disruption of law and order warranted this decisive action, and this development came following formal requests from the Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CTTC) unit of the police and the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) to the ministry to make JAFHS's activities illegal. JAFHS is the ninth militant group to have been outlawed in the country, and eight others are Ansarullah Bangla Team (ABT), Ansar al-Islam, Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), Jagrata Muslim Janata Bangladesh (JMJB), Harkat-ul-Jihad-al Islami Bangladesh (HuJI-B), Hizb-ut-Tahrir (HuT), Allah’r Dal, and Shahadat-e al-Hikma.

On August 19, Faisal Uddin alias Faisal, the head of the weapon manufacturing gang, and his five associates were arrested by the Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) along with arms and ammunition from the remote hills of Hnila Rangikhali area of Teknaf Upazila (Sub-District) in Cox’s Bazar District (Chittagong Division), reports Daily Bangladesh. Recovered arms and ammunition include two single-barrelled guns, four LGs, one semi-finished LG, seven rounds of shotgun cartridges, 10 rounds of rifle cartridges, one drill machine, one fire-lighting machine, two lathe machines, two iron pipes, and weapons-making equipment. Major Syed Sadiqul Haque, Acting Captain of RAB-15, said the influx of Rohingya refugees has led to an increase in drug prevalence and weapon availability in the region. Criminals exploit the proximity of Rohingya camps to the border, making it difficult to arrest them, he added.
