Fake news circulating on social media alleges that around 500 members from Meikhitla Air Base in Mandalay Region are preparing to march to Shan State (North). The fabricated report, disseminated by Mekong Media, aims to sow discord among Tatmadaw members dedicated to defending the state and safeguarding the lives and properties of the people.

This misinformation is intended to undermine the pride of the Tatmadaw and create misunderstandings among the public. Destructive media outlets are spreading these rumors, with the goal of instigating tension between service personnel and local communities. The government remains committed to ensuring regional peace, stability, and the rule of law.
