Security forces falsely accused of burning and shelling four villages in Madaya Township

The malicious media are circulating false news on online networks alleging Tatmadaw of burning and shelling four villages located east of Madaya Township, Mandalay Region and injuring two civilians. Regarding the news, PDF terrorists gathered in the above villages and ambushed the security forces. If they have no chance to attack, they burn the villages, according to the residents and officers from the security forces in the area.
The malicious media supporting PDF terrorists are spreading false news, covering up their terrorist acts and misleading the public. — MNA/TKO
