The Bangladesh Army on Sunday strongly condemned disinformation disseminated by Northeast News through its recent article titled “Bangladesh to declare Cox’s Bazar to Bandarban area as a military operations zone.”
In a press release issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the Bangladesh Army said this report is a clear manifestation of deliberate misinformation aimed at destabilising Bangladesh’s internal harmony and maligning the reputation of its armed forces.
“The insinuation that the Bangladesh Army supports insurgent actors, is not only baseless but also malicious. Such speculative reporting, devoid of evidence, reflects a broader agenda to sow discord and mislead the public”, the ISPR said.
It said, Bangladesh Army has always upheld the highest standards of professionalism and remains resolutely committed to protecting the nation’s sovereignty, integrity, and constitutional order. There will be no compromise on national interest—now or ever.
This narrative is not journalism; it is part of a sustained smear campaign. Bangladesh stands united and aligned firmly in defence of its people and its territory, the ISPR added.
