Security forces accused of attacking villagers in Yenangyoung

Malicious media outlets are spreading false information on social media, claiming that security forces launched attacks using heavy weapons, resulting in one civilian dead and four hurt in Kukkokhwa village-tract, Yenangyoung Township of Magway Region on 28 July.
Civilians reported to security forces that PDF terrorists hid in the vicinity of Kukkokhwa village-tract. Upon a tip-off, security forces conducted security measures, and they did not open fire on the village, according to a security official.
PDF terrorists asked for money from Yenangyoung residents and killed locals, and fake news was reportedly circulated through malicious media, defaming security forces. — MNA/KTZH
