The Battle of Kampung Sakilkilo was a battle between the Indonesian National Army and the Gurkha Army in the district of Kampung Sakilkilo, Sabah, Malaysia on July 10, 1964.
On July 10, 1964, in the fighting in Sakilkilo and Batugar villages in Sabah, a platoon of the North Kalimantan National Army (TNKU) with Indonesian soldiers succeeded in killing 20 British and Gurkha soldiers. TNKU is the military wing of Ahmad Azahari's Brunei Ra'yat Party which was formed to realize the state of North Kalimantan (another name for Sabah). In addition, the Kujang 328/II Siliwangi troops captured 34 Gurkha soldiers who infiltrated the Kapuas area, Sambas.
Fearing that the conflict would escalate into an open war, Britain increased its military presence. In July 1964, a joint operation of Britain, Malaysia, Australia, and New Zealand under the leadership of Major General Walter Walker was ready to face Indonesian power. As soon as the Indonesian marines attacked Malaysia on August 17, 1964, the British immediately launched Operation Claret.
