Editing Air Fiji Flight 27 (section)

== Casualties and aftermath ==
All 201 passengers and 13 crew members were killed. Among the passengers were the wife and two children of [[Mark Hugerinus Paap]]. Their deaths led him to investigate the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen and its responsibility for the shootdown.<ref name="mark-flight27"/>

Following the incident, the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen expanded its internal security operations and imposed further restrictions on Tanoan airspace. France and the United States subsequently provided equipment and logistical assistance to Tanoa. Both governments officially described the assistance as support for counter-resistance operations.<ref name="history-2010s"/>

In 2019, Mark Hugerinus Paap attempted to enter [[Tanoa]] to investigate Flight 27 and other regime activity. Patrol units of the [[Tanoanische-Urwaldkorps]] ambushed him and forced him to retreat through [[Rereki]] to [[New Caledonia]].<ref name="mark-flight27"/><ref name="history-2010s"/> After repeated failed attempts to access the island, Mark and his cousin [[John Hugerinus Paap]] began forming a decentralized resistance network outside Tanoan-controlled territory.<ref name="fish-background"/><ref name="fish-formation"/>

The network adopted the name [[Fish Collective]] in 2021, when it began operating under a public identity and expanded its direct action against the regime.<ref name="fish-name"/> The organization later exposed Tanoan operations and contributed to the collapse of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen in November 2024.<ref name="fish-collective"/>
