False claims circulated by Khit Thit media on clashes in Shan State (South)

The Khit Thit malicious media is spreading fake news alleging that on 10 March, intense clashes resulted in at least 16 houses being burnt to ashes due to bombing by Tatmadaw fighter jets, heavy weapons firing, and incendiary bombs dropped by drones in Hsihseng Township and Hopong Township, Southern Shan State.
In January, KNDF, PNLA, and PDF terrorists attacked security forces working to stabilize and secure the area in Hsihseng Township. Terrorist activities are openly taking place in Hsihseng Township. In this incident, terrorists deliberately fired heavy weapons and dropped drone bombs into Hsihseng Township and Hopong Township, resulting in houses being burned and destroyed, according to a security official.
Local people who oppose such terrorist acts are protesting against them, but illegal subversive media is only disseminating fake news and false information through social networking sites to conceal the terrorist acts. — MNA/TKO
